Israeli forces have intensified their military campaign in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, as the Palestinian death toll continues to rise amid relentless airstrikes and ground operations. Witnesses report widespread destruction, with residential areas and hospitals coming under fire.
Escalation in Southern Gaza
The Israeli military has expanded its offensive in Khan Younis, targeting what it claims are Hamas strongholds. Palestinian health officials report dozens of fatalities, including women and children, as civilian infrastructure bears the brunt of the attacks.
Humanitarian Crisis Deepens
Local hospitals, already overwhelmed, are struggling to cope with the influx of casualties. Medical supplies are running critically low, and displaced families face dire conditions with limited access to food, water, and shelter.
International Response
The UN and several aid organisations have condemned the escalation, calling for an immediate ceasefire. However, diplomatic efforts to de-escalate the conflict have so far yielded little progress.
The situation remains volatile, with no clear path to resolution as both sides dig in for further confrontation.
