Israel's Deadly Airstrikes in Gaza

Israel faced condemnation after airstrikes killed 45 Palestinians, including women, children, and the elderly, sheltering near a UN building in southern Gaza. Following an international court ruling to cease its offensive in Rafa, Israel continued its assaults.

The Israelis claimed they targeted a Hamas compound killing senior officials, but the attack led to civilian casualties and a mass casualty event.
