Roughly 100 hostages remain in captivity in Gaza, more than 30 of whom are dead, according to Israel. Hostages face severe risks to their lives, including lack of food, hygiene, untreated injuries, abuse from captors and Israeli airstrikes.

At least 200 people were killed in Israeli airstrikes on northern Gaza Saturday, according to local health officials, as the United Nations said it would pause aid deliveries through the enclave’s main crossing after its trucks were stolen.

A Palestinian health official said Wednesday that at least 21 people were killed in Israeli strikes on a camp housing displaced people in Gaza.

Israeli airstrikes tore through a tent camp for displaced Palestinians in southern Gaza on Wednesday, sparking fires and killing at least 21 people, according to the head of a nearby hospital, in the latest assault on a sprawling tent city that Israel designated a humanitarian safe zone but has repeatedly targeted.

Israeli strikes on northern and central Gaza killed at least 87 Palestinians in 24 hours, local health authorities said, as the death toll in the enclave surpassed 44,000.

The airstrike killed five people in Khan Younis, including at least two WCK workers. In April, a strike on a WCK aid convoy in Deir-al-Balah killed seven of its workers.View on euronews
