The Gaza City Massacre has left the world in shock as Israeli airstrikes killed at least 61 civilians in Gaza City. Most of the victims were women and children. The attacks have worsened the already dire humanitarian crisis in the region and sparked international condemnation. Medical teams reported that hospitals are struggling to cope as supplies run out and casualties rise.
Medical sources confirmed that Israeli forces targeted civilians fleeing near Al Shifa Hospital in western Gaza City. At least 13 people were killed in this single attack with dozens more injured. Witnesses described scenes of chaos as bodies were carried to hospitals amid panic and fear. Separate strikes hit the Tel al Hawa neighborhood killing two more civilians and wounding eight others.
Field hospitals across Gaza reported receiving dozens of casualties throughout the day. The Al Saraya Hospital confirmed the arrival of three bodies and 11 injured victims from Al Sahaba Street after heavy shelling. The total death toll in Gaza has now risen to at least 83 including 61 in Gaza City alone as Israeli forces continue their offensive.
International Condemnation and Legal Actions
Qatar announced it has approached the International Criminal Court in The Hague seeking legal action over what it calls war crimes committed in Gaza. The European Commission has also presented a proposal to suspend trade relations with Israel in response to the ongoing assault. Human rights organizations worldwide have condemned the attacks and are calling for immediate international intervention to protect civilians.
US Senator Bernie Sanders became the first American lawmaker to describe the Gaza City Massacre as genocide. Campaigners have also called for European football federations to ban Israeli players and boycott matches in response to the attacks. The move has sparked widespread debate over international accountability and the need for urgent humanitarian intervention.
Meanwhile France Portugal and Australia are considering stronger measures including diplomatic and economic pressure on Israel. These steps aim to push for a ceasefire and protection of civilians in Gaza.
Humanitarian Situation Worsens
Palestinian residents describe having no safe place left to flee as supplies of food water and medicine run out. Many say death feels preferable to the constant displacement and destruction. Aid agencies warn that the blockade of northern Gaza is pushing the region toward complete humanitarian collapse.
The ongoing Gaza City Massacre has caused severe humanitarian distress with thousands of civilians displaced and basic supplies cut off. Hospitals are overwhelmed with casualties and medical resources are critically low. Families are forced to flee without money or safe passage, highlighting the urgent need for international aid and protection.
