Israeli attacks across Gaza kill over 100 people

Israeli strikes across Gaza killed at least 103 people, the majority of them children and women, on Thursday, rescuers said.

According to an earlier report on Wafa, the death toll from Israel's war on Gaza has risen to 52,928 Palestinians, with almost 119,846 reported wounded since 7 October 2023.

Israel carried out the latest strikes on the day Palestinians commemorate the Nakba, or "catastrophe" in English, when around 750,000 Palestinians were forcibly expelled from their homes by Zionist militias to make way for the creation of Israel in 1948.

With most of the 2.3 million people in Gaza internally displaced, some residents of the tiny enclave say suffering is greater now than at the time of the Nakba.

"What we are experiencing now is even worse than the Nakba of 1948," said Ahmed Hamad, a Palestinian in Gaza City who has been displaced multiple times.
