At least 77 Palestinians were killed in Israeli airstrikes on Gaza within 24 hours, according to local reports. Among the dead, 11 people lost their lives while waiting in line for bread.
Of the victims, 47 were residents of Gaza City, where bombardments and forced displacement have triggered a mass exodus. Hundreds of Palestinians, carrying only a few belongings, were seen fleeing the city in trucks, vans, and even donkey carts.
On Friday, Israel announced it had entered the “initial phase” of seizing control of Gaza City, declaring it a “battle zone.”
Al Jazeera correspondent Hani Mahmoud described the escalating situation:
“Attacks across Gaza City are intensifying. Homes, community centers—everything is being destroyed. The foundations of civilian life are collapsing. All this is happening while people are already facing famine, starvation, and acute water shortages. The entire situation is turning into a humanitarian catastrophe.”
