"Israel's Intensified Offensive in Southern Gaza Sparks Urgent Calls for Civilian Protections"
TL;DR
Israeli forces continue their air and ground bombardment of southern Gaza Strip, causing dozens of Palestinian casualties, despite calls from the United States and the United Nations to protect civilians. The US urges Israel not to strike safe zones, while the UN appeals for Israel to avoid actions that worsen the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza. Israel reports three soldiers killed in combat, bringing the total to 78 since the ground invasion began. The resumption of the military operation displaces more people and strains the already limited humanitarian aid in Gaza.
