The Onslaught in Gaza surpassed its 6^th month on Sunday as the death toll for Palestinians rises throughout the region.
- A total of 33,000+ Gazans are left dead, with the majority being women and children as the holy month of Ramadan ends for Muslims in Palestine and Eid arriving.
- Close to 155,000 pregnant women are left without basic necessities to ensure survival for themselves and their unborn children as only 3 maternity hospitals in Gaza remain, after the several others were destroyed by the Israeli Occupation Forces.
- Around 1.7 million people have been displaced throughout Gaza, with many that are finally able to return, coming back to destroyed homes and neighbourhoods.
- Israel shows no restraint as they continue to deliberately target areas densely populated by civilians.
The IOF pulls out of Khan Yunis as Hamas shows no signs of defeat or tiring from the fight.
- The Israelis officially pulled out of Khan Yunis on Monday after failing to achieve both of their main objectives: to dismantle Hamas and bring the hostages back.
- That same day left 4 Israeli Soldiers dead after being ambushed by Hamas operatives in Khan Yunis.
- Thousands have now returned to the rubble of what they once called home in Khan Yunis.
- This all comes after Iran threatens to strike Israel (they have now) in retaliation to the killings of senior Iranian Military officers in Syria.
  
  Israel’s onslaught shows no sign of ending.
Israeli strikes kill 122 civilians on Eid day alone.
- 14 Gazans were killed in an Israeli strike on al-Zawaida in Gaza’s Nuseirat refugee camp.
- 90,000 Lebanese civilians have also been displaced due to the bombings conducted by Israel as well as the Hezbollah presence.
- The UN is also refuting claims made by the Israelis in which they state that there has been no actual increase of aid to Gaza, contrary to what Israeli officials are claiming.
- The UNRWA said that only 223 trucks entered on Monday. Less than half of the 500 needed every day.
- Israel’s deliberate targeting and killing of foreign nationals (including 3 British veterans) volunteering for the World Central Kitchen has also left the world outraged leading to Biden now calling for a ceasefire.
