Jewish forces also conducted raids in the occupied West Bank, detaining Palestinians while airstrikes continued in response to Hamas’ assault.

According to the Gaza ministry, the death toll has now reached 5,087, including 2,055 children and over 1,000 women. More than 15,000 people were injured during the Israeli forces’ daily bombardments over the past 17 days of unrest.
Israeli media reported that strikes targeted over 320 military sites in the Gaza Strip, but numerous civilians lost their lives. Several countries, including Pakistan, have called for the resumption of the peace process to establish a Palestinian state.
In the midst of this humanitarian crisis, Israel imposed restrictions on the entry of fuel into Gaza, citing concerns that Hamas could use it for weapons and explosives. In reality, Gaza’s largest hospital is running out of fuel, and ambulances, hospital incubators for children, and water plants are at risk of ceasing operations.
Thus far, hundreds of buildings have been destroyed, and more than one million people have been displaced in this territory that has been under siege.
