In northern Gaza's Beit Lahia, at least 73 people, including women and children, were killed in Israeli airstrikes, according to Hamas-run authorities. The strikes, part of Israel’s ongoing offensive, targeted residential areas, leaving many trapped under rubble. Israel’s military challenged the casualty figures, calling them "exaggerated." The bombings come as Israel continues to hit Hamas-linked targets in Gaza and Lebanon, with ongoing cross-border fighting. Humanitarian groups raised concerns over the situation, citing minimal aid to Gaza’s north and urging an end to the violence.
