Israeli military operations in Gaza have intensified, with frequent airstrikes and artillery shelling targeting multiple neighborhoods including Khan Younis, Al-Sabra, Al-Zaytoun, Al-Tuffah, Jabalia, and refugee camps such as Nuseirat and Al-Bureij. These attacks have resulted in numerous Palestinian casualties, including civilians and aid seekers. The United Nations Office for Human Rights reported that approximately 1,760 Palestinians were killed between May 27 and August 13, 2025, while attempting to access humanitarian aid, with 994 deaths near aid distribution sites and 766 along aid convoy routes. Medical sources in Gaza have also highlighted a growing humanitarian crisis, with malnutrition-related deaths reaching at least 263, including over 110 children. The Palestinian Health Ministry stated that over 62,000 Palestinians have died since the conflict began in October 2023, with 156,230 wounded. Recent days have seen particularly deadly incidents, including Israeli fire killing dozens of Palestinians waiting for aid, and airstrikes near hospitals and residential areas. Israeli forces have also advanced into Gaza City’s Sabra neighborhood with tanks and military vehicles under artillery cover. Humanitarian organizations like Doctors Without Borders have reported a sharp rise in mass casualties and indiscriminate killings linked to the ongoing siege and chaotic aid distribution. The worsening humanitarian situation has prompted urgent global calls for peace and aid, with Hamas reportedly agreeing to the latest ceasefire proposal amid the escalating crisis.
