Amidst the ongoing conflict, Israel has faced condemnation for its attacks on Gaza University. The university has been hit hard by the Israeli military, causing destruction to its infrastructure. The Israeli military is reportedly intensifying its attacks on the main city of Khan Yunis in southern Gaza. Khan Yunis is considered a stronghold of Hamas, which is why Israeli forces have targeted the city. According to the Palestinian Red Crescent, a significant number of casualties have been reported, with Al-Amal Hospital being hit, resulting in approximately 77 deaths. Israel claims to have eliminated dozens of militants in these attacks, emphasizing its commitment to continue the conflict until the eradication of terrorism. Israeli leaders have reiterated their determination to persist with the war until the complete end of terrorism.
