home in Gaza’s Jabalia refugee camp that left some 50 people dead or missing told Al Jazeera that “the Israeli military is killing civilians for fun”. UN chief Antonio Guterres said the conflict in Gaza has reached the “cruellest phase of this cruel conflict” as Palestinians starve while Israel allows only a “teaspoon of aid” to enter the famished enclave and “nothing has reached the besieged north”. Israel’s war on Gaza has killed at least 53,822 Palestinians and wounded 122,382, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry. The Government Media Office updated the death toll to more than 61,700, saying thousands of people missing under the rubble are presumed dead. An estimated 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led attacks on October 7, 2023, and more than 200 were taken captive. (Aljazeera)
