As the Palestine-Israel conflict enters its 71st day, the toll of human lives continues to rise dramatically. According to recent reports, over 18,787 Palestinians have lost their lives in Israeli attacks since October 7. In Israel, the death toll has been revised to 1,147.
Tragic incidents include strikes on a UN school in Khan Younis and residential areas in southern Gaza, resulting in the deaths of at least 10 individuals. These attacks have not only caused significant loss of life but have also led to a humanitarian crisis.
In addition to the tragic loss of lives, Palestinian telecommunications firms have reported another setback. Israeli attacks have cut communication services in Gaza once again, leading to a communications blackout. Gaza's government media office has highlighted that this blackout severely hampers rescue and relief efforts, making it even more challenging for those in need to receive timely assistance.
The ongoing conflict underscores the urgent need for a resolution to prevent further loss of life and alleviate the suffering of civilians caught in the crossfire.
