An Israeli airstrike in the Nuseirat refugee camp in Gaza killed at least 33 people, including children, according to Hamas-run health authorities. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) claimed it targeted a "senior terrorist," resulting in secondary explosions that damaged nearby structures. Over 80 individuals remain missing, with more than 40 injured, primarily children, receiving treatment at hospitals. This comes as U.S. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan visits Israel, expressing hope for a ceasefire. Gaza faces a worsening humanitarian crisis, with over 44,800 Palestinians killed since last year, the health ministry reports. Civilian casualties remain alarmingly high.
