"Gaza Death Toll Climbs to 25,000 in Ongoing Israeli Strikes"

Palestinian health officials reported that the death toll from Israeli strikes in Gaza since October had surpassed 25,000, with 178 Palestinians killed in the past 24 hours. Israeli forces and Hamas fighters clashed across the Gaza Strip, with ongoing heavy bombing and street battles. United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres denounced Israel for the civilian deaths, while Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected Hamas' conditions to end the war. The conflict has led to widespread displacement and dire humanitarian conditions for Palestinians.
