Deadly Israeli airstrikes have once again torn through Gaza, killing at least 21 people, including women and children, as violence intensifies across multiple fronts. According to regional reports, neighborhoods in Gaza City, including Tuffah and Zeitoun, were among the worst hit since dawn, adding to a death toll that has now surged beyond 71,800 Palestinians killed and more than 171,500 wounded since October 2023. The humanitarian crisis deepened further as the evacuation of patients through the Rafah crossing was abruptly halted, despite earlier coordination efforts with the Palestine Red Crescent Society. Patients had already begun arriving in Khan Younis for transfer when the evacuation plan was suddenly postponed, leaving critical medical cases stranded amid worsening conditions. WATCH
