Gaza’s Health Ministry said Thursday that Israeli forces killed 78 Palestinians and injured 214 in the previous 48-hour period as Israeli strikes continued across the Gaza Strip.
One strike on Thursday targeted a school-turned-shelter in the Shati refugee camp in northern Gaza. At least 12 Palestinians were killed and 30 were wounded in the attack on the Shati Elementary Boys School, which is affiliated with the UN’s Palestinian relief agency, UNRWA.
Later in the day, Al Jazeera reported that at least 52 Palestinians were killed in Gaza on Thursday, including 42 in the north, where Israeli forces are carrying out an ethnic cleansing campaign.
Reuters reported that dozens of Palestinian families were pushed out of Beit Lahia, one of the cities where the ethnic cleansing campaign has been focused. Israeli forces have been destroying homes in Beit Lahia to ensure Palestinians don’t return.
“After they displaced most or all of the people in Jabalia, now they are bombing everywhere, killing people on the roads and inside their houses to force everyone out,” a displaced Palestinian man told Reuters.
In southern Gaza, the Palestinian news agency WAFA reported three children were killed by an Israeli strike in Rafah.
Gaza’s Health Ministry said that the latest violence brought its death toll since October 2023 to 43,469 and the number of wounded to 102,561. The ministry only counts bodies brought to hospitals and morgues. “There are still a number of victims under the rubble and on the streets, and ambulance and civil defense crews cannot reach them,” the ministry said.
A group of American healthcare workers who volunteered in Gaza have estimated the US-backed Israeli bombing campaign and siege has killed at least 118,908 Palestinians, including over 60,000 who have starved to death.
Facts are important, indeed essential… The truth is also essential.
I often wonder, of late, why Israel even exists… What do they perceive it might be?…
Israel was a "beach head" nation formed so that the USA and England could assume a major influence in the Middle East, using Israel as a sort of "aircraft carrier". Setting up this monstrous nation turned out to backfire BIG TIME!
Another day, another slaughter. 43,000 my ass. It's more like hundreds of thousands killed.
Yes, the Biden-Harris regime DESERVED TO LOSE THE ELECTION IN A LANDSLIDE.
It's a new Day in America. You can just feel it:

Israeli/US kill more Palestinians. Without the weapons, money supplied by the USA, Israelis would have gone back to NY long ago. This slaughtering of human life, is the fault of the USA and I hope, Biden, Harris, Blinken, Sullivan, Austin, etc., get charged with Crimes against Humanity. The USA should NOT escape the wrath of the ICC and for the sake of STOPPING this Genocide, Genocides of the future, the slaughterers need to be arrested.
The BBC is reporting today that 70% of those killed in Gaza have been women and children. That's obscene.
That has been well known, what took the BBC so long?
They were citing official UN figures on the death toll.
The IDF seems to be accelerating its' ethnic cleansing program while the election drama is in full swing, taking full advantage of the shock of Trump's reelection. Given the fact that Trump has a better working relationship with Arab leaders than Biden, Palestinians might have a better chance with him.
Only if it serves him, he was the preferred choice of Netanyahu as far as we know.
Donald J. Trump

I will not be inviting former Ambassador Nikki Haley, or former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, to join the Trump Administration, which is currently in formation. I very much enjoyed and appreciated working with them previously, and would like to thank them for their service to our Country. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!
He had the chance on his first time around, what has changed? He is 4 years older, what else has changed?
As we have seen from the campaign, Trump tends to improve with age.
Like old wine? I hope you are right, his first test will be how he handles Ukraine and how he deals with the neocons.
Why Democrats don't like the idea of showing your ID to vote: https://x.com/elonmusk/status/1855650251077722130
Israeli Forces Kill 78 More Palestinians in Gaza Over 48 Hours — There must be some way to stop this most horrible thing, but I don't have any idea of what it might be at this time.
You think somebody will remind President Trump of this? : https://x.com/charliekirk11/status/1855811108931854753
