The death toll in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine has risen to 213, with the majority of the victims being Palestinian, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry.
Israeli airstrikes have continued to pound the Gaza Strip, with hundreds of strikes carried out in recent days. Hamas has retaliated by firing rockets into Israel.
The conflict began on May 10, after Hamas fired rockets at Jerusalem in response to the Israeli police’s crackdown on Palestinian protesters at the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound. Israel responded with a massive airstrike on Gaza, and the conflict has escalated since then.
The United Nations has called for a ceasefire, but both sides have so far refused to comply. The UN Security Council has held several emergency meetings on the conflict, but has failed to agree on a resolution.
The United States has expressed support for Israel’s right to self-defense, but has also urged Israel to avoid civilian casualties. The Biden administration has also been working with Egypt and other regional countries to try to broker a ceasefire.
The Gaza-Israel conflict is a complex and long-standing one. The two sides have been fighting for decades over the issue of Palestinian statehood. Israel has occupied the Gaza Strip since 1967, and the Palestinians have been seeking to establish an independent state in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.
The current conflict is the worst between Israel and Hamas since 2014. The conflict has caused widespread destruction in the Gaza Strip, and has displaced hundreds of thousands of people.
The international community is calling for an immediate ceasefire to end the bloodshed. The United Nations has warned that the conflict could have a devastating impact on the people of Gaza, who are already living in dire conditions.
