Israel Bombed Gaza on 36 of Past 40 Days Amid US-Iran War

Amidst a forty-day conflict between the United States and Iran, which recently concluded with a ceasefire agreement mediated by Pakistan, Israel has maintained intense military operations in Gaza. An analysis by Al Jazeera reveals that Israel bombed Gaza on 36 of the past 40 days, resulting in at least 107 deaths and 342 injuries during this specific period. Since the nominal ceasefire in Gaza began six months ago, over 738 people have been killed. The report highlights severe humanitarian restrictions, noting that Israeli authorities permitted only 8 percent of requested medical evacuations and allowed just 20 percent of aid trucks to enter. Key incidents include the targeted killing of Al Jazeera journalist Mohammed Wiswash and massive strikes in Lebanon that killed 254 people. The article emphasizes that while global attention focused on the US-Iran war, violence in Gaza and Lebanon continued unabated, with Israel violating the Gaza ceasefire thousands of times. The total death toll in Gaza since the start of the war exceeds 72,000, affecting ten percent of the strip's population.
