Humanitarian Crisis in Gaza

The ongoing conflict in Gaza has led to a catastrophic humanitarian crisis, with over 40,000 Palestinian deaths reported. Military operations by the Israeli forces continue to exacerbate the dire situation for civilians, particularly in areas like Rafah and the Nizarene corridor. Reports indicate that evacuation centers and residential homes are being targeted, leaving many without basic medical and humanitarian necessities. With schools in Gaza turning into shelters and resources being depleted, the challenges faced by the population are intensified as the violence persists without resolution.
