The humanitarian organization CARE has issued a statement saying what’s happening in Gaza now is beyond what it envisioned as the worst case scenario. The Israeli military says its ground forces carried out an operation inside the Gaza Strip, attacking multiple Hamas targets before withdrawing. The Israeli Air Force (IAF) said it attacked “over 250 targets” belonging to the Hamas Islamist militant group in the Gaza Strip over the past day. In a post on social media platform X, formerly Twitter, the IAF said its fighter aircraft struck what it called “terrorist infrastructure,” tunnel shafts and rocket launchers, which it said was situated in “a civilian environment.” Israel has been bombarding the Palestinian territory, with the military saying it is targeting Hamas. The persistent airstrikes have worsened the humanitarian situation for more than 2 million residents in the Gaza Strip. The action taken against Hamas has been in response to the large-scale terror attack the group launched on southern Israel on October 7.
