Israeli Occupation’s aggression on Gaza enters 357th day
Israeli Occupation continues its relentless assault on Gaza for the 357th consecutive day, targeting all aspects of life in the devastated region.
The latest atrocity was the massacre at Al-Faluja School in Jabalia, northern Gaza, where displaced civilians had sought refuge.
In another development, the 'Israeli' army announced Thursday evening that it had launched new airstrikes on Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon. This came after 'Israel' rejected a 21-day ceasefire proposal with Hezbollah, which had been put forward by several nations, including the United States.
Israeli Occupation military issued a statement confirming that it was currently striking Hezbollah positions in southern Lebanon. Meanwhile, the White House affirmed that the international call for a ceasefire in Lebanon had been coordinated with the occupation, which later refused the proposal.
Rising Death Toll in Gaza
The Palestinian Ministry of Health reported a sharp increase in the death toll from the 'Israeli' aggression, with 41,534 Palestinians killed and 96,092 injured since the escalation began on October 7. Many victims remain trapped under rubble or in areas unreachable by emergency and civil defense teams.
Operation Aqsa Typhoon
Hamas' military wing, Al-Qassam Brigades, launched Operation Aqsa Typhoon on October 7 in response to 'Israeli' violations in the occupied Palestinian territories. In retaliation, 'Israel' initiated Operation Iron Swords against Gaza, conducting intense airstrikes across various areas, resulting in hundreds of deaths, thousands of injuries, and widespread destruction of buildings, residential towers, institutions, and infrastructure.
Focus Shifts to Lebanon
Israeli Occupation's aggression on southern Lebanon has entered a new phase, with increased airstrikes and escalating clashes between Hezbollah and 'Israeli' forces.
Tensions escalated further after Israeli Occupation destroyed Hezbollah communication devices on Sept. 17 and 18, leaving many dead or injured.
The United Nations Security Council is set to hold an emergency session on Wednesday, following a request by France, to address the situation in Lebanon.
The ongoing 'Israeli' airstrikes have caused a rising death toll and growing numbers of injuries as the assault on Lebanon continues unabated since last Monday.
