Escalating Conflict in Gaza: Civilians Caught in Crossfire

Israeli airstrikes in Gaza killed 29 people, including 19 in a home where displaced people sheltered. The ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict remains unresolved despite international mediation. Thousands are displaced, with limited access to humanitarian aid. UN and U.S. diplomatic efforts aim for a ceasefire amid the escalating crisis.

Overnight Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip claimed 29 lives, including 19 people in a home for displaced civilians in northern Gaza, Palestinian medical officials reported.

As the Israel-Hamas conflict continues without resolution, efforts by international parties to mediate a ceasefire have yet to yield results, raising concerns over civilian casualties and displacement.

Humanitarian conditions worsen as access to basic necessities remains severely restricted, despite diplomatic efforts by the United Nations and U.S. to facilitate assistance in the region.
