Gaza: Israel kills 25+ Palestinians seeking aid
Israeli forces intensified their assault on Gaza Saturday, launching widespread airstrikes and artillery barrages that killed dozens of displaced civilians and aid seekers, according to Palestinian media.
In Khan Younis, artillery struck Tineh Street where thousands had gathered near an aid site, killing 29 and wounding dozens, Quds News Network reported, as medical staff at Nasser Hospital struggled to cope with the surge in casualties.
To the west, an airstrike flattened a civilian tent in the Yabani area. Additional strikes hit Asdaa and al-Mawasi, while Israeli troops demolished homes in al-Sattir al-Gharbi and shelled multiple eastern districts under the cover of flares.

As the offensive widened, Gaza's Government Media Office accused the European Union of ignoring 'ongoing massacres,' calling for urgent international intervention.
