In the ongoing Palestine-Israel conflict, at least 140 people, including women and children, were killed in Israeli raids on the Gaza Strip overnight. The news was reported by AFP on Tuesday, citing sources from Hamas.
This escalation marks one of the deadliest nights in the Gaza Strip since the conflict intensified over two weeks ago. The raids targeted multiple locations across the territory, adding to the increasing toll on civilians.
Amidst the violence, a new convoy of humanitarian aid entered the besieged Gaza Strip through the Rafah crossing from the Egyptian side. This marks a crucial lifeline for the residents of Gaza, who have been facing shortages of essential supplies including food, water, and medical aid.
The humanitarian situation in Gaza has drawn international concern, with calls for a ceasefire and increased aid to alleviate the suffering of civilians caught in the conflict.
The Rafah crossing has been a focal point for aid deliveries, and its opening is seen as a positive step towards providing much-needed relief to the population.
The conflict continues to have significant implications for the region’s stability and has drawn global attention to the urgent need for a peaceful resolution.
