Gaza’s Crisis Escalates Amid Tower Demolitions

• Israeli forces flattened three residential towers in Gaza City, killing at least 53 Palestinians, including 35 in the city itself.
• The al-Kawthar tower in the Remal neighborhood was struck just two hours after being marked for destruction.

• Residents were ordered to flee south toward al-Mawasi, designated by Israel as a “humanitarian area.”
• However, al-Mawasi has repeatedly come under bombardment, with families reporting dire conditions: no water, sanitation, or shelter.
• The famine-related death toll continues to climb, with children among the victims. Malnutrition and lack of aid are compounding the crisis.

International Condemnation:

• Gaza’s Government Media Office accused Israel of a “systematic campaign” targeting schools, hospitals, and humanitarian institutions.

The Doha summit condemned Israel’s strike on Qatar, framing it as an attempt to sabotage ceasefire negotiations.
