Israel has launched a deadly onslaught on the Gaza Strip since Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack, killing more than 24,000 people and injuring 60,000 others.
The offensive has left 85% of Gaza’s population internally displaced amid acute shortages of food, clean water and medicine, while 60% of the enclave’s infrastructure was damaged or destroyed, according to the UN. (T/RE1/P2)
