The United Nations
Security Council has held an emergency meeting as condemnation intensifies over
Israel’s plan to capture Gaza City and forcibly displace nearly a million
Palestinians.
Israeli attacks across the besieged Gaza Strip
persisted on Sunday, claiming at least 52 more lives, while the number of
Palestinians who have died from Israeli-induced starvation since the war began
has risen to 217 — including 100 children.
Global protests erupted in major
cities such as Buenos Aires, London, and Istanbul, with demonstrators urging
world leaders to take immediate action to halt Israel’s ongoing assault on
Gaza.
The latest toll from Gaza’s health
authorities shows 61,430 Palestinians
killed and 153,213 wounded since the start of the war. On the Israeli
side, an estimated 1,139 people were killed during the October 7, 2023,
attacks, with more than 200 taken captive.
The UNSC emergency session — called under mounting pressure from humanitarian groups — is yet to deliver concrete measures to stop the offensive. Meanwhile, calls for a ceasefire grow louder as conditions in Gaza worsen by the hour.
Fact-check & Background Context:
· Gaza’s death toll figures are provided by Gaza’s Ministry of Health and verified by humanitarian monitors.
· Israel’s stated goal is dismantling Hamas, but rights groups warn the operation constitutes collective punishment under international law.
· UNSC has previously failed to pass resolutions calling for a ceasefire due to vetoes by permanent members.
· The October 7 attacks remain the deadliest single day in Israel’s history.
