Gaza Death Toll Crosses 50,000 As Israel Issues Fresh Evacuation Order
Determined to continue severe bombardment across Gaza, the Israeli military on Sunday issued a fresh evacuation order to the residents of the southern Gaza City of Rafah. The military has also dropped leaflets using drones urging the residents to leave the place, set to continue its deadly offensives.
A military spokesperson in an announcement on X said that the army launched an offensive to strike the “terrorist organizations” in Rafah’s Tal al-Sultan district.

With renewed attacks killing over 600 people since Tuesday, the Gaza health ministry on Sunday confirmed that the death toll has surpassed 50,000 since the genocidal offensive started in October 2023. At least 113,213 people have been wounded and many others are still missing under the debris, the ministry said.
Foreseeing its pre-planned renewed assault on Gaza, shattering the truce that had partially kept though the IDF frequently broke, Israel earlier this month blocked humanitarian aid to the war-ravaged strip. The Jewish nation also cut electricity supply to the region, worsening the already dire conditions of around 2.4 million Palestinians in Gaza.

Though it is reported that the Israeli public is no longer interested in deaths in Gaza, with several protests happening, more than 600, including many children and women, have been killed since the resumed bombardment, stating it just a beginning of severe offensive.
Thousands of protesters are demonstrating against Prime Minister Netanyahu, for his decision to fire those who oppose his line. Pressures are mounting against the Prime Minister, alleging that he is destroying the hope of remaining hostages getting released, and the is killing democracy. Around 58 hostages continue to be in Hamas captivity, who were scheduled to be released upon the next phase of the ceasefire deal.
Israel’s army continues attacks across the Gaza Strip, which has killed at least 35 people in the pre dawn strike on Sunday. Senior Hamas official Salah al-Bardawil and his wife who were sleeping in a tent, were also reported to have killed during the raid.
Countries and international agencies including the UN, have expressed shock over the continuation of genocide of civilians in Gaza, as the Jewish nation steps up its aggression slowly wiping out an entire generation.
