Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip resulted in the deaths of at least 12 Palestinians today, with the majority occurring in Beit Lahiya. Following these attacks, the Israeli military issued evacuation orders for residents in the southern Gaza area, citing rocket fire from there. Palestinian and UN officials warn that there are no safe zones in Gaza as the conflict has displaced thousands. Israel’s military offensive began in response to a Hamas attack on October 7, 2023, resulting in significant casualties on both sides.
