Israeli attacks continued to pound Gaza on Thursday, killing at least 110 Palestinians since dawn, Al Jazeera reported, as the Israeli military is expanding its ground offensive in the besieged territory.
Gaza’s Health Ministry said earlier in the day that since Israel restarted its genocidal war on Tuesday, at least 506 Palestinians, including 200 children and 112 women, have been killed, a total that doesn’t account for all the deaths on Thursday. Another 909 people have been wounded, including 303 children and 205 women.
The massive child casualties being reported by the Health Ministry align with accounts from healthcare workers treating patients at Gaza’s hospitals. Dr. Feroze Sidhwa, an American trauma surgeon volunteering at a hospital in Khan Younis, told Antiwar.com that the morning Israel resumed its massive bombing campaign, he and other medical staff operated “almost exclusively on women and children.”
Israeli strikes on Thursday pounded targets across the Strip, including residential buildings in Khan Younis, where at least 20 Palestinians were killed. A 25-day-old baby was recovered from the rubble in Khan Younis after her family was killed. In Beit Lahia, northern Gaza, at least 10 Palestinians were killed by Israeli strikes. Among the dead on Thursday was a newborn baby.
The Israeli military launched an invasion of Beit Lahia as it hit the city with airstrikes. A day earlier, Israeli troops retook the Netzarim Corridor, which separates northern Gaza from the rest of the Strip. Later on Thursday, the IDF re-invaded the southern city of Rafah.
Hamas said on Thursday that it fired a rocket barrage toward Tel Aviv in response to the Gaza slaughter, marking the group’s first known attack since the ceasefire went into effect on January 19. The Israeli military said it intercepted one rocket, and two others fell in open areas. No casualties were reported.
On Wednesday, Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz made an explicit threat to the civilian population of Gaza, warning they will face “utter destruction and devastation” if they don’t free Israeli hostages and oust Hamas. The US is strongly backing Israel’s escalations in Gaza, which includes a total blockade on aid and all other goods entering the territory.
Killing these people in gas chambers would probably be a more humane and efficient solution to the Palestinian problem.
The ASI government still has faith (pardon pun) in its Penultimate Solution. No need yet to invoke the Final one.
"ASI" ?? meaning?
Apartheid State of Israel.
But that puts it in a category with the comparative utopia of Apartheid S Africa, … ?
Fitting. As they shared nuclear weapons testing (Vela Incident) and probably furiously scribbled notes off each others’ social structures.
Israel has surpassed the third reich, …bay far.
"Killing [Gazans] in gas chambers would probably be a more humane and efficient solution to the Palestinian problem."
Ahh…Please do NOT propose that satirical "solution" to ANY Israeli cabinet minister.
The IDF has gassed Hamas tunnels, killing hostages. One mother accused the IDF of killing her son in that fashion, "just like Auschwitz".
Or Trump. He likes things nice and tidy – no mess.
It's crime to suggest people should be killed in gas chamber. You're a criminal, disgusting humain being!
I think he was talking about all the extra suffering the Palestinians will endure before they die as compared to a relatively short period of time it would take to die in a gas chamber. Judging be his past comments I would be shocked if he meant what you think he meant.
Like plan number two of extermination if plan number one doesn't succeed…?! They're dying anyway.. but let's make it quickly…!

Not even the worry of a bullshit red line with the Don in charge. Just kill away but be sure to tell everybody you're going to do it in advance, so it isn't terrorism (/s).
What more destruction and devastation can be inflicted ? Seems like the "utter" zone was passed months ago in terms of infrastructure and housing. Is this some tacit admission that the ASI means to kill everything that moves (to borrow from Nick Turse) ?
Yes, it does.
The political conditions of the civilian population in Gaza are similar to those of the civilian population in Germany between 1933 and 1945. Please compare patriarchal Islam with statements of Jihad:
2.191 "Kill them wherever you come upon them1 and drive them out of the places from which they have driven you out. For persecution2 is far worse than killing. And do not fight them at the Sacred Mosque unless they attack you there. If they do so, then fight them—that is the reward of the disbelievers."
https://quran.com/2?startingVerse=191
8.57 "If you ever encounter them in battle, make a fearsome example of them, so perhaps those who would follow them may be deterred."
https://quran.com/8?startingVerse=57
https://quran.com/4:95/tafsirs/en-tafsir-maarif-ul-quran Some Injunctions about Jihad
https://quran.com/22:78/tafsirs/en-tafsir-maarif-ul-quran "And struggle for (seeking the pleasure of) Allah, a struggle that is due to him – 22:78) The words جِھَاد – (jihad) and مُجَاھِدہ (mujahadah) mean to exert one's utmost effort to achieve an objective and to take pains for it. (That is why the word is translated above as 'struggle' )."

Not impressed. Someone who enjoys typing a lot, why not also copy most of the Old Testament bible. What you will see is also lots of killings, rape, slaughter for the unbelievers, hell fire, adultery and everything else vile.
Do you take those books literally? Are you jumping from the clouds into the vast depths?
Just a dishonest person would take some verses without the context. Why should we give you any credit? It's not an honest approach, it's intellectually poor, never mention the traditional interpretation of those verses, never the historic context(the persecution against the Muslims at that time etc…) . You have 0 credibility! Go play game, it's more of your intellectual level.
According to your authoritarian, aggressive, stupid, poisonous answer, you probably don't play chess. Your brain is thinking so weakly in malicious intent that it doesn't recognize the context of the internet links to the statements of the other referenced commentators and my words. If you know the Quran so wisely, then please describe the verses in context to the surah or the whole Quran as well as the hadiths, Tafasir.
If Israel is so worried about its hostages in Gaza, then why did it kill MOST of those "1200" Israelis on October 7, 2023, killing both hostage and hostage taker?
Nonsense.
You haven't read the confessions of high level IDF officers, current and retired?
Or, the description by a Jewish witness, a woman named Porat? She spoke of the use of tanks to shell homes that contained members of Hamas and Israelis.
You did not read of the use of American made Apache helicopters, flown by Israeli Jewish pilots that incinerated more than 70 cars fleeing back into Israel?
Haaretz described the radio transmissions of the pilots, the absolute confusiion.
Not nonsense at all. Zionists are killers.
The latest is that 9/11 aircrafts were not manned by Muslims but remotely controlled with all indications pointing at Mossad with our CIA.
No wonder the two killing countries are in bed together again killing more people around the world. Trump and his golden side kick are so happy about killing the "enemy" in Yemen and Somalia and warning Iran of the same .
Muslims and Russians are not our enemies but Israeli and American Zionists are.
Because Israel can use hostages as propaganda machine… but street people come and go…!

Most Jews in Israel and the diaspora approve. Fact.
Bless those Jews who do not.
Aside from the ol mafia "you dont want the kids to grow up and take revenge" trope there is the fact Israelis are the most heavily vaxxed population on the planet with all the serious consequences to their health while the Palestinians were to poor to be "protected". Its a demographic war also, the Palestinians could outbreed the Jews, cant have that! Whoops, used the words vaxxed and Jew, awaiting approval now!
The word “vaxxed” doesn’t trigger moderation.
