For more than 700 days, Gaza has endured relentless bombardment that bears the hallmarks of systematic extermination. Overnight, fresh airstrikes and shelling claimed dozens of lives, reducing homes to rubble and deepening the scale of human suffering. One of the deadliest attacks struck a building sheltering displaced families in central Gaza, killing 11 and leaving others missing beneath twisted debris. In Khan Younis, another strike on a residential home took four lives and injured several more, adding to the mounting toll of devastation.

Since March 2025 alone, over 12,800 people have been killed and nearly 55,000 wounded. The death toll since October 2023 exceeds 65,000, with more than 167,000 injured. Thousands remain unaccounted for, trapped under collapsed buildings, buried in unmarked graves, or detained in conditions that conceal their fate. Rescue teams face near-impossible conditions, with constant bombardment obstructing aid and leaving survivors without protection or hope.

Across Gaza, entire communities are being erased. Helicopter strikes targeted homes in densely populated areas, drone attacks struck residential streets, and explosives laid between houses reduced entire blocks to rubble. In Tel al-Hawa, rescue teams could not reach victims before a second strike flattened the building. Survivors speak of nights filled with explosions and days without shelter, food, or safety. After more than two years of systematic violence, Gaza stands on the brink of collapse, a humanitarian catastrophe of unprecedented scale.
