GAZA (Palestine Foundation Information Center) The Israeli occupation army continues its genocidal war on the Gaza Strip on Thursday, now entering its 601st day since the aggression began—rekindled 73 days ago after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reneged on a ceasefire agreement. Backed by American political and military support and enabled by unprecedented international silence and failure, the situation in Gaza remains catastrophic.
The PIC correspondents report dozens of Israeli airstrikes, while the humanitarian disaster deepens due to Israel’s ongoing blockade on basic food supplies since early March—pushing the population further into the grip of famine.
