Israeli strikes on Rafah have claimed the lives of at least 16 Palestinians, as reported by first responders. The ongoing conflict in the southern Gaza city has led to nearly 1 million residents fleeing, seeking refuge in makeshift camps. Despite warnings from allies, including the U.S., against a full offensive, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu remains steadfast in the operation, aiming to dismantle Hamas. The recent strikes targeted areas already devastated by previous attacks, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis. International calls for de-escalation persist, but tensions continue to rise in the embattled region.
