Palestinians claim at least 40 dead in Israeli airstrike on humanitarian camp in Gaza


An Israeli strike on a crowded tent camp in Deir al-Balah, Gaza Strip, housing Palestinians displaced by the war in Gaza killed at least 40 people and wounded 60 others. Israel claimed it targeted “significant” Hamas militants, while Hamas denied these allegations. The strike was one of the deadliest in Mawasi, designated as a humanitarian zone by Israel for civilians seeking shelter from the conflict. The strike caused destruction, with entire families killed in their tents.

The war has led to vast destruction and the displacement of 90% of Gaza’s population. Israel blames Hamas for civilian deaths, stating that militants operate in residential areas. The conflict, sparked by Hamas’ attack, has killed over 40,000 Palestinians in Gaza, according to the Health Ministry.

Efforts to broker a cease-fire and release hostages by the United States, Egypt, and Qatar have faced challenges due to new demands from both Israel and Hamas. The humanitarian crisis in Gaza has raised concerns of famine, and aid groups have struggled to provide assistance amid ongoing fighting and Israeli restrictions. A convoy involved in a polio vaccination campaign was stopped by Israeli troops, causing damage to UN armoured vehicles and threatening to detain UN staff.

The vaccination campaign aims to vaccinate 640,000 children amidst a destroyed healthcare system. The situation highlights the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza caused by the ongoing conflict.
