GAZA CITY: The death toll from Israeli air raids on Al-Bureij camp and Jabalia town in the Gaza Strip has increased to ten, according to Palestinian media reports on Wednesday. The escalation follows the launch of rockets from the center of the Gaza Strip, one of which was intercepted by the Israeli military while the other landed in an open area, causing no casualties.

According to National Iraqi News Agency, the Israeli army conducted operations targeting residential areas in the Saftawi area, west of Jabalia camp, leading to the destruction of several homes. These events are unfolding amid ongoing hostilities, marking the 453rd day of the conflict in Gaza.

An investigation by Haaretz newspaper has brought to light actions by the commander of the Israeli 252nd Division, who reportedly conducted independent operations in Gaza. The commander is said to have permitted his brothers to form a force aimed at demolishing buildings within the Strip, raising questions about the conduct of military operations in the region.

The conflict continues to draw international attention as efforts to mediate peace remain tenuous, with both sides experiencing significant losses and hardships. The situation in Gaza remains volatile, with humanitarian conditions deteriorating amid the prolonged conflict.
