At least dozens of people were killed and injured in the northern Gaza Strip on Wednesday after Israeli airstrikes targeted a refugee camp near Gaza City. Images obtained by Agence France-Presse showed major damage and destruction at the camp, with videos of wounded people, including children, being brought to a nearby hospital. The United Nations has expressed concern over the airstrikes and the potential evacuation of the Rafah crossing, calling for an immediate end to the violence and for the protection of civilians.
Dozens of people have been killed in airstrikes on the Jabaliya refugee camp in the Gaza Strip, where Israel says it targeted Hamas. The Rafah border crossing to Egypt opened on Wednesday, allowing hundreds of foreign passport holders and the wounded to leave the war-torn territory. Four hostages were released by Hamas, but no one else has been allowed to leave the embattled enclave. The international community is calling for an immediate ceasefire and for both sides to come to the negotiating table, but the situation in Gaza remains dire with no end to the violence in sight.
