At least 27 Palestinians have lost their lives in Israeli airstrikes in Gaza, as the conflict in the besieged territory reaches its tenth month. One of the strikes targeted a school in Gaza city housing displaced individuals, resulting in the death of at least four Palestinians. In central Gaza, six people were killed when the Israeli army struck a residential building in the al-Zawayda area, including two children. These incidents follow the previous day's attack on a United Nations-run shelter, where 16 people were killed and many others injured. Six more Palestinians were reported killed in another house strike in Gaza City, with Israeli jets also targeting civilians in Sabra neighbourhood, resulting in more casualties. The Israeli military claimed to have struck a building in Khan Younis used by Hamas for military purposes. The total death toll from Israeli attacks since October 7 has risen to 38,153, according to Gaza's health ministry. The conflict has led to a severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza, with a large portion of the population facing hunger and critical shortages in healthcare. Fresh diplomatic efforts are underway, involving mediators from the United States, Qatar, and Egypt, to negotiate a ceasefire and hostage release with Hamas. Efforts include discussions between Israeli and American delegations in Cairo and potential talks with Qatari mediators to bridge gaps in negotiations with Hamas. Proposals have been exchanged, with hopes of progress towards a truce to end the violence that has plagued the region for months. Air raid sirens and rocket attacks continue to pose threats in the region, while protests in Israel aim to pressure the government to secure the release of hostages held in Gaza.
