47 Palestinians killed in ‘Israeli' airstrikes on Gaza since early Saturday
At least 47 Palestinians were killed in a new wave of 'Israeli' airstrikes on the Gaza Strip since early Saturday, according to medical sources in the besieged territory.
The dead include 23 people in Gaza City and the northern areas of the Strip, while dozens more were wounded, some critically, the sources said.
Hospitals across the enclave reported that the air raids struck multiple areas, causing widespread destruction to residential buildings and infrastructure. Among the victims were women and children, while overwhelmed hospitals continue to treat the wounded under dire medical conditions.
The 'Israeli' military has not released an official statement detailing the reasons behind the strikes or the intended targets.
In response, Palestinian authorities condemned the attacks as part of an ongoing assault on the Palestinian people and urged the international community to intervene to protect civilians.
The escalation comes amid continued tensions in the region, with Gaza under a crippling blockade and facing a deepening humanitarian crisis.

Death Toll from Malnutrition in Gaza Rises to 66 Children - Jordan News
The number of children who have died in the Gaza Strip due to severe malnutrition has risen to 66, as the Israeli occupation continues to close border crossings and prevent the entry of infant formula and nutritional supplements intended for vulnerable groups, particularly infants and the sick. اضافة اعلان In a press statement released today, the Government Media Office in Gaza stated that this conduct constitutes a war crime and a crime against humanity, revealing the Israeli occupation's deliberate use of starvation as a weapon to exterminate civilians—especially children—in blatant violation of international humanitarian law and the Geneva Conventions. The office strongly condemned this ongoing crime against children in Gaza and expressed deep concern and outrage over the rising number of child casualties. It also denounced the international silence in the face of the suffering of children left to fall prey to hunger, disease, and slow death, holding the Israeli occupation fully responsible for this catastrophe. The statement called on the international community, the United Nations, and Arab and Islamic countries to take immediate action and pressure Israel to open the crossings without delay, allow the entry of food and medical supplies, and save the remaining children and patients before it is too late.

Death toll from hunger among children in Gaza rises to 66
Ammon News - Medical sources announced on Saturday that the number of children who have died due to hunger and malnutrition in the Gaza Strip has risen to 66, as Israel's blockade, border closures, and food shortages continue to devastate the civilian population. Earlier today, the World Health Organization (WHO) reported that an average of 112 children are being hospitalized every day in Gaza for treatment related to severe malnutrition since the start of the year, directly linked to the ongoing Israeli siege. Currently, only 17 out of Gaza's 36 hospitals are partially functioning, with no operational hospitals at all in the northern areas or in Rafah in the far south — both of which have suffered intense Israeli bombardment and mass displacement.
