An Israeli airstrike on a five-story residential building in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza, has left at least 93 people dead or missing, according to the Gaza health ministry. Rescuers reported bodies covered in blankets, while nearby Kamal Adwan hospital struggled to treat injured children due to shortages of staff and medicine. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) intensified operations in northern Gaza, targeting Hamas positions amid claims of militants embedded in civilian areas. Israel has barred independent journalists from entering Gaza, complicating verification efforts. The strike contributes to the region's worsening humanitarian crisis, affecting hundreds of thousands.
