Tap title to read story
Over 140 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza in the last 24 hours, marking a deadly escalation in the conflict. Israeli strikes since Thursday have killed over 300, prompting fears of famine due to a complete aid blockade. The UN condemned the attacks as possible ethnic cleansing, while Secretary-General Guterres called for a ceasefire. Israel launched "Operation Gideon's Chariots," aiming to secure hostages held by Hamas following their October 2023 attack. Despite ongoing ceasefire talks in Doha, the situation remains dire, with widespread hunger and lack of medical care in Gaza.
