Israel intensified its assault on Gaza City, destroying a second high-rise building today.
The Israeli military has ordered hundreds of thousands of residents in Gaza City to evacuate, citing ongoing operations and escalating danger. This follows the destruction of a previously targeted high-rise and warnings of further strikes, impacting a population already facing severe shortages of food and water.
According to the BBC, at least 778 Palestinians have been killed and 2,055 injured since the conflict began, with over 338,000 displaced. The United Nations warns of a rapidly deteriorating humanitarian situation within Gaza.
Negotiations between the U.S. and Hamas are reportedly underway, though details remain scarce. The situation remains volatile, and further escalation appears likely as Israel continues its military actions.
