At least 82 Palestinians were killed in Israeli airstrikes on Sunday, with 39 of the fatalities occurring in Gaza City alone, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.

Since the beginning of the conflict, a staggering 743 Palestinians have been killed and 4,891 injured while attempting to collect humanitarian aid, often distributed through centers affiliated with the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation—a joint initiative backed by Israel and the United States.

The current war, which erupted following the Hamas-led attack on October 7, 2023, has dragged on for nearly 21 months. Former U.S. President Donald Trump has proposed a 60-day ceasefire deal that could soon be formalized. Hamas has responded positively to the proposal, while Israel has authorized a delegation to travel to Qatar for further negotiations.

Retired Israeli Major General Yitzhak Brick has challenged the Israeli Defense Forces' claim of nearly destroying Hamas in Gaza. In a recent opinion piece, Brick stated that Hamas currently has around 40,000 fighters, the same as before the war began. He emphasized that Hamas fights with guerrilla tactics from tunnels and was never a conventional army, making claims of its military destruction unrealistic. Brick warned that this resurgence signals a potentially prolonged conflict ahead for Israel, raising doubts about official military statements.

At least 743 Palestinians have been killed and 4,891 injured while attempting to collect food aid in Gaza, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.

These casualties occurred at distribution points managed by the controversial Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), which faces accusations of indiscriminate shooting and stun grenade use by Israeli forces. Though both GHF and the Israeli military deny the allegations, human rights organizations have called for GHF's operations to be suspended. The foundation continues to receive U.S. support and funding.

Al Jazeera reports that the actual death toll may be even higher.

Despite talks of a ceasefire, Israeli airstrikes have killed at least 78 Palestinians in the past 24 hours, according to Al Jazeera. The attacks targeted shelters and food aid centers in Khan Younis, Nuseirat, and Gaza City. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has announced that a delegation will be sent to Qatar for ceasefire negotiations. Since October 2023, the death toll in Gaza has reached 57,400, with more than 135,957 injured. The attacks have drawn widespread condemnation amid ongoing humanitarian concerns.

The Israeli administration has effectively transformed Sinjil city in the occupied West Bank into an open-air prison by erecting a five-meter-high fence around it. Only a single entrance gate remains open, under strict surveillance, severely restricting the daily lives of local Palestinians. Residents are unable to freely access their own extensive lands, face significant movement barriers, and struggle to maintain their livelihoods. While Israel claims the fence is a necessary security measure, Palestinian leaders denounce it as a form of oppression and a tactic to break their morale.

Since Benjamin Netanyahu's government was formed in 2022, Jewish settlement construction in the West Bank has surged by up to 40%, according to Israel’s Channel 12. The number of settlements has risen to 178, alongside an increasing rate of Palestinian home demolitions. Fourteen ministers have also signed a letter urging Netanyahu to legalize the occupation. Channel 12 reports that over 41,000 settlement units have been approved this year alone—surpassing records from the past six years. Experts warn that this strategy undermines prospects for a two-state solution.

Despite ongoing Israeli drone attacks—one of which killed civilians and a Red Cross medic in Rafah—Hamas has responded positively to U.S. President Donald Trump’s 60-day ceasefire proposal. The proposal includes terms for hostage releases and conflict resolution. Hamas communicated its willingness to engage in negotiations via Qatar and Egypt. Meanwhile, Israeli strikes have destroyed shelters, including the Yaffa School in Gaza’s Tuffah area, resulting in additional civilian casualties.

During last month’s 12-day air campaign against Iran, Israeli jets reportedly dropped unused bombs on Gaza during their return flights—a tactic that has become standard protocol. These bombings killed hundreds of Palestinians. In the past 21 months, Gaza has seen 57,130 deaths. While U.S. President Donald Trump has proposed a ceasefire framework, Hamas insists on guarantees to ensure a complete end to the conflict.

Gaza, Thursday — The Quds Brigade, the armed wing of Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), has launched a missile strike targeting the Israeli military command center in southern Gaza, according to a statement from the group.

They claimed the strike hit its intended target directly. In a coordinated operation, the group also reportedly fired mortar shells at Israeli military positions north of Khan Younis and announced the destruction of an Israeli tank in the city center.

The attacks come amid ongoing escalations between Palestinian resistance groups and Israeli forces in the region.

Israeli airstrikes have killed at least 118 Palestinians and injured over 581 others in Gaza within the past 24 hours, according to the local health ministry and media office. More than 300 deaths were recorded over 48 hours, with 26 incidents classified as mass killings. Civilian areas including shelters, homes, markets, and food aid centers were targeted. On Thursday morning, 33 people were killed at a food distribution site, 13 in a tent, and 16 in a school. Witnesses described the missile strikes as so intense that some victims were burned to death.

As ceasefire negotiations continue, Israel has intensified its attacks in Gaza, killing over 300 Palestinians in the last 48 hours alone, according to Gaza’s Ministry of Health. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) reportedly carried out at least 26 massacres, including an airstrike on a relief center that killed 33 people. American security forces have also been accused of shooting civilians waiting for aid. To date, more than 56,000 Palestinians have been killed and over 134,000 injured. A coalition of 130 human rights organizations has demanded the shutdown of the controversial GHF program, accusing it of weaponizing hunger.

As part of a proposed ceasefire deal, Hamas has agreed to release 10 living Israeli hostages and return the bodies of 18 others over a 60-day truce, to be implemented in five phases. However, Hamas insists on a permanent ceasefire and full Israeli troop withdrawal from Gaza. Hamas spokesman Taher al-Nunu stated the group is serious and ready for a full end to the war. While negotiations continue, the proposal has raised hopes for a potential breakthrough, though no final agreement has been reached yet.

Despite ongoing ceasefire negotiations, Israel has continued its offensive in Gaza, killing at least 111 Palestinians in the past 24 hours. Among the dead were 24 people waiting for food at a relief center. Israeli airstrikes hit shelters and aid facilities in both northern and southern Gaza. Gaza’s main hospital is facing a critical fuel shortage, endangering hundreds of patients. According to the UN, 82% of Gaza is under Israeli military control or under threat of forced displacement. Since October 2023, Israeli attacks have killed over 57,000 Palestinians and injured hundreds of thousands more.

Dr. Marwan Sultan, Director of the Indonesian Hospital in Gaza, was killed along with several family members in an Israeli airstrike on his home. The Palestinian Health Ministry condemned the strike as a "barbaric crime against the medical sector." The Israeli military claimed it targeted a senior Hamas figure and is investigating civilian casualties. Dr. Sultan’s daughter insisted he had no political affiliation and was solely dedicated to treating patients during the ongoing war. Separately, at least five were killed in another airstrike on a "safe zone" tent camp in Khan Younis.
