Israeli bombings intensify in the north and south of the Gaza Strip. In Khan Younes, the IDF claims to be carrying out hand-to-hand combat.
Most of the population fled to coastal areas or Rafah. According to residents, even the area near the Egyptian border, so far spared from the strikes, is being targeted.
According to Hamas, the human toll in Gaza has exceeded 17,400 deaths, most of them women and children. These figures do not distinguish between civilian victims and fighters of the Islamist movement.
Tel Aviv accuses Hamas of using the civilian population as human shields to protect its fighters during their operations, and claims to have made considerable efforts to evacuate Gazans from dangerous areas.
The European Union, for its part, announces that it will release 125 million euros in humanitarian aid for the Palestinian people by 2024.
The World Health Organization warns that the population lives “a horrible scenario” in the “cruel campaign” of retaliation by Israel against the Hamas terrorist attack.
