Israeli military operations in the Gaza Strip intensified overnight, resulting in at least 51 deaths and 82 injuries, according to the Gaza Health Ministry. Strikes targeted various sites, including an orphanage run by the al-Amal Institute, where many displaced civilians, primarily women and children, were sheltering. The Israeli military claimed these buildings were being used by Hamas for operations. In total, airstrikes hit multiple schools across Gaza, prompting condemnation from international observers. The French Foreign Ministry criticized the repeated targeting of civilian infrastructure amid ongoing conflict in the region, where explosive attacks occur every three hours on average.
