On the 165th day of the Israeli occupation, Gaza endured another harrowing day marked by bloodshed and devastation. Overnight attacks on Monday (March 19) ravaged various areas, including Jabalia and Rafah, leaving a trail of destruction and loss.

According to reports from the Wafa news agency, the Israeli military targeted civilian homes, resulting in the deaths of at least 8 Palestinians in Jabalia, including several children. The attacks also inflicted numerous injuries on innocent civilians. In Rafah, unarmed Palestinians bore the brunt of Israeli aggression, further escalating tensions in the already volatile region.

In addition to the assaults on residential areas, airstrikes pounded locations in Musaba, Kharbit Al Adas, and Al Jenaina, claiming the lives of at least 14 people. The indiscriminate bombings spared no mercy, causing widespread devastation and adding to the mounting death toll.

Medical facilities, including Kuwait Hospital, were not spared from the onslaught, compounding the humanitarian crisis gripping Gaza. Refugee camps, already teetering on the brink, faced renewed attacks, exacerbating the plight of vulnerable populations.

The latest escalation in violence underscores the urgent need for international intervention to quell hostilities and protect civilian lives in Gaza. As the death toll climbs and the humanitarian situation deteriorates, calls for an immediate ceasefire and lasting peace grow louder, highlighting the dire need for a comprehensive resolution to the ongoing conflict.
