Israeli airstrikes in Gaza City led to the deaths of at least 39 people, with the Israeli military targeting Hamas military sites. The strikes came after a previous attack near a Red Cross facility, prompting calls for an independent investigation by EU officials.
Tensions Rise in Tel Aviv
Protests in Tel Aviv against Prime Minister Netanyahu’s handling of the conflict drew tens of thousands, demanding new elections and the release of hostages held in Gaza. Dissatisfaction with the government has been on the rise as the conflict in Gaza continues.
The conflict began with Hamas-led terror attacks in October, resulting in numerous casualties and hostages. The ongoing violence in Gaza has claimed over 37,551 lives, according to the Health Ministry.
