Gaza’s Health Ministry said on Monday that at least 125 Palestinians were killed and 364 were wounded over the previous 24-hour period as the Israeli military expanded military operations in the Strip.
The Health Ministry said that the bodies of 11 Palestinians who were killed in previous Israeli attacks were also recovered. “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 wrote on Telegram.
Heavy Israeli strikes hit the southern city of Khan Younis after the Israeli military ordered the evacuation of the area, threatening that an “unprecedented attack” was coming.
“The Israeli Defense Forces will launch an unprecedented attack to destroy the capabilities of terrorist organizations in this area,” Avichay Adraee, the IDF’s Arabic spokesman, wrote on X.
Adraee ordered Palestinians fleeing the area to head to al-Mawasi, a tent camp on the coast that has come under frequent IDF attacks. “From this moment, Khan Younis governorate will be considered a dangerous combat zone,” he wrote.
Medical sources told Al Jazeera that the Israeli military launched at least 30 strikes on Khan Younis on Monday, and attacks also hit the central and northern parts of Gaza.
More than 100 Palestinians have been reported killed on a daily basis for the past few days as the Israeli military has launched a new phase of its genocidal war on Gaza, an offensive it has dubbed “Gideon’s Chariots.” The purpose of the assault is the full Israeli takeover of Gaza and the destruction of any remaining buildings.
The ramped-up military operations have exacerbated the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Israel has maintained a total blockade on Gaza since March 2 and allowed five aid trucks into the Strip on Monday, a step Israeli officials have made clear is about maintaining US support for its plans to take over and destroy Gaza.
Aid groups say hundreds of aid trucks are needed to enter per day to bring real relief to the civilian population, as the majority of charity kitchens that many rely on for food have shut down.
I expect the weapons from the US will continue to flow. But that's what you get from a government run by blackmailed pedophiles.
The only place Israel occupies more than the West Bank of the Jordan is the East Bank of the Potomac.
Does not get more ignorant than that!
The number of lobbyists in Washington DC is estimated to be over 12,000.— Think before you post
The number of AIPAC lobbyists in the U.S. is less than the Zionist lies you spin.
They don't come any more ignorant than yourself.
Spare me,
Of course it does help that Israel's interests align with those of other swamp monsters, mainly the Military Industrial Congressional Complex and the Evangelical Christian Apocalypse Cults.
But it doesn't matter. Fewer and fewer people are falling for your Hasbara, which is why you see attempts to shut down speech critical of a foreign country instead
Israel "occupies" the official narrative of everything, even the narrative that states "there is no genocide occurring in Gaza". First change the definition of "terrorist" to escape that designation, then change the definition of "genocide" to escape that designation. Double standards rule the day.
That the people who deny Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza, also claim a genocide is happening to white South Africans is especially ironic. https://apnews.com/article/south-africa-afrikaners-trump-refugees-ramaphosa-c87264523d555a64c0588d8734bba83a
And now Israel adn the US will allow food aid in in order for Israel to commit more genocide with US bombs, tanks and guns. Starving them to death they realized was not too good on the world's stage but killing people outright with bombs is accepted on the planet it seems.

So, 500 are needed daily so those five are good for about 3.5 minutes. Now who said the Israelis are heartless bastards? Okay, the was me.
If a Russian drone strike kills a single civilian in Ukraine, that's reported above the fold in the NYT.
When Israel kills 100 Palestinians every day in Gaza, that doesn't even count as newsworthy for the NYT. It's just routine, now.
Israel is on track to slaughter 40,000 Palestinians this year (110/day x 365 days) without any notice in the major media. Of course, the mass murder by starvation is being noticed, as it should be (and there should be much more outrage).
It's as if the Israelis want to commit their murders brazenly, as if they enjoy the display of their behavior. As if the display is part of the action.
Sickening to observe. And still barely a peep out of Congress.
This will all come to a very bad end.
To the extent that “above the fold” means anything anymore, right now you have to go halfway down the NYT front page of the site to find anything about Ukraine at all, and none of the featured stories is about any Russian strikes on Ukraine. If you search Bing News for “Ukraine,” there are no stories about Russian strikes anywhere near the top of the results. If you search for “Ukraine strike,” you get six stories down before finding a couple of stories about strikes since yesterday’s Putin phone call.
The MSM coverage of Ukraine at this point is about 99% “Trump talked to Putin or Zelenskyy or there were talks in Istanbul” stuff, with occasional mentions of any of the actual fighting and dying going on there.
But the MSM is in kind of a bind. If they cover the fighting, they’re accused of a) caring about Ukraine more than Palestine and b) talking up Ukrainian casualties to make Russia look bad. If they don’t cover the fighting, they’re accused of ignoring it because Russia is supposedly “winning.”
Seems if you go back far enough this all started with Wilson's intervention in the European war of 1914. i.e. No intervention, no Treaty of Versailles, no Treaty, no Hitler, no Hitler, no holocaust, no holocaust, no Israel, no Israel, no Palestinian genocide. I know that's an oversimplification, but it works, doesn't it?
While it’s impossible to know what would have happened if Major Event X had gone differently, it’s reasonable to believe that if Major Event X had gone differently, subsequent events would have gone differently as well.
True. Some other politician would probably fck it all up and history could even have been worse than it was. Countless possibilities for good or evil, but the greatest evils seem to come from the state.
All of the world pleas with Hamas to surrender and end the killing of Palestinian children.
