At least 15 people were killed in southern Gaza following a series of Israeli airstrikes. The strikes targeted suspected militant strongholds, according to Israeli military sources. However, local hospitals have reported civilian casualties, sparking widespread outrage in the region.
The escalation comes amid heightened tensions and fragile ceasefire agreements between Israel and Hezbollah in neighboring Lebanon. International organizations and regional leaders have called for restraint as fears grow of a broader conflict.
This latest development adds to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where thousands remain displaced due to ongoing hostilities.
