According to a statement from UNRWA, the number of displaced people continues to rise due to ongoing hostilities.

This influx of displaced residents has forced the agency to close all 14 of its food distribution centers, affecting approximately half a million people who rely on vital food aid.

In a related development, the Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza reported that zionist regime’s airstrikes targeted four ambulances in the vicinity of Khan Yunis city, further heightening concerns about civilian casualties.

Meanwhile, israeli warplanes persist in launching airstrikes on various targets throughout the Gaza Strip.

This escalation follows the Palestinian Hamas group's initiation of "Operation Al-Aqsa Flood" against Israel early Saturday. The operation involved a barrage of rockets and infiltrations into Israel by land, air, and sea in response to tensions surrounding the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied East Jerusalem and increased settler violence against Palestinians.

In retaliation, the zionist military launched "Operation Swords of Iron" targeting Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

As the conflict rages on, the toll on civilians is deeply distressing. According to the Gaza-based Health Ministry, the number of Palestinians killed by zionist forces in Gaza has surged to 704, including 143 children and 105 women. The number of wounded stands at around 4,000.

On the israeli side, the Health Ministry has reported at least 900 fatalities and over 2,600 injuries resulting from the fighting.

The international community closely monitors the situation as Palestinian civilians grapple with the devastating impact of the Zionist aggression. (ILKHA)
