Gaza Bombardment Intensifies: 32 Died Amid Netanyahu’s U.S. Visit
Aid organizations report that more than one million children have not received life-saving assistance.
The Gaza conflict has escalated, worsening an already devastating humanitarian crisis. Israeli airstrikes intensified across the Gaza Strip, killing at least 32 Palestinians on April 6. The dead include over a dozen women and children. These strikes coincided with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s visit to the U.S. to meet President Donald Trump.
In response, Hamas launched rockets at Israeli cities. Israel ordered evacuations from central Gaza, displacing thousands more. The violence resumed after a ceasefire broke down on March 18. Since October 2023, over 50,000 Palestinians have died in the conflict.
Humanitarian Crisis Worsens
Conditions in Gaza remain catastrophic. Over 90% of Gaza’s 2.1 million people are displaced. Most lack access to shelter, food, clean water, and medical care. Aid organizations report that more than one million children have not received life-saving assistance for over a month. Israeli blockades have prevented critical supplies from entering the region.
International Response Builds
French President Emmanuel Macron announced a peace summit in Cairo. He will meet with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi and Jordan’s King Abdullah II. The goal is to find a path to a ceasefire. Macron also plans to meet with humanitarian aid workers in the region.
Meanwhile, the United Nations and the Palestinian Red Crescent have demanded independent investigations. These focus on recent incidents where aid workers were killed in Israeli strikes. The Israeli military has updated its initial reports and admitted discrepancies in their accounts of the attacks.
Global Calls for Ceasefire
The international community continues to pressure both sides. Governments and aid agencies are urging for an immediate ceasefire. They also call for unrestricted humanitarian access into Gaza.
As of now, the situation on the ground remains highly unstable. Airstrikes continue. Rockets keep flying. Aid remains blocked. The people of Gaza face growing despair.
This ongoing conflict has not only strained regional stability but also created one of the worst humanitarian disasters in recent memory. The coming days will be critical, as world leaders push for peace and aid workers struggle to reach those in desperate need.
