Israeli airstrikes in Gaza have killed at least 61 people over 48 hours as fighting between Israeli forces and Hamas intensifies. Despite multiple diplomatic efforts, including from the U.S., no ceasefire has been reached. In Gaza City, airstrikes targeted schools housing displaced families, leading to several casualties. Hamas and Israeli officials continue to blame each other for failed ceasefire talks. Amid the conflict, the United Nations has managed to continue a polio vaccination campaign, reaching over 50% of the 640,000 targeted children. The war, which began on October 7, has caused severe humanitarian crises in Gaza.
