Israel bombed Gaza on Tuesday after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that there will be no peace until Hamas rulers are destroyed and Palestinian society is “deradicalized.”
As heavy ground combat continued, the army said it had struck more than 100 targets in 24 hours, including military sites and tunnel shafts in central Jabalia and Khan Yunis in the south.
The ferocious military campaign launched in response to the Hamas attacks on October 7 has resulted in mass civilian casualties, widespread hunger, and the destruction of much of the coastal territory.
The United Nations World Health Organisation reported “harrowing” accounts of entire families being killed during Christmas Eve strikes on the Al-Maghazi refugee camp in Gaza’s central region.
