Israel bombarded Gaza with more air strikes today ahead of an anticipated ground operation into the besieged Palestinian enclave as the United Nations warned that civilians were running out of places to seek shelter.
Earlier, Israli military leader, Daniel Hagari gave updates on the hostage situations as signs emerge that the conflict was spreading, with Israeli aircraft striking southern Lebanon overnight.
Meanwhile, more aid crossed the border into Gaza yesterday but the U.N. humanitarian agency said it was just a fraction of the amount needed to help a desperate population short of food, water, medicine and fuel.
European union foreign affairs chief, Josep Borell also advocated a quick end to the war, stating that aids provided will not meet the need of affected people.
Health authorities in Gaza said at least 4,600 people have died in Israel’s two-week bombardment after an assault on Oct. 7 by Hamas militants on southern Israeli communities in which 1,400 people were killed and 212 taken as hostages.
