Rescuers say 100 dead as Israel launches fresh Gaza offensive

On May 18, 2025, Israel initiated a large-scale military campaign called Operation Gideon Chariots targeting Gaza, aiming to compel Hamas to free hostages and to weaken the group.
The operation followed a breakdown of a January ceasefire resumed on March 18 and increasing hostilities after Hamas's October 7, 2023 attack on southern Israel that killed 1,200 people and abducted 251.
Recent Israeli strikes in Gaza have killed over 150 people in 24 hours, including women and children in multiple locations such as Jabaliya and Deir al-Balah, with ongoing concerns for at least 23 hostages believed alive.
Gaza's third-month blockade restricts all imports, causing critical shortages of food, fuel, water, and medicine amid warnings of a potential famine if aid is not allowed, despite UN plans ready to activate delivery immediately.
The intensified offensive has drawn widespread protests, international alarm, and calls for a ceasefire, while indirect talks between Israel and Hamas continue in Qatar without preconditions but no breakthrough yet.
