Israel's airstrikes on Khan Younis led to at least 54 fatalities, compounding the already dire situation in Gaza amidst a total blockade. The strikes came during President Trump's Middle East tour, aiming to bolster regional stability and security. Hopes for a ceasefire or the resumption of humanitarian aid were dampened by Netanyahu's commitment to intensify military operations in Gaza against Hamas, which he claimed was crucial for dismantling the militant group's control of aid. The ongoing blockade has raised alarm about worsening humanitarian conditions.
At least 54 people were killed after Israel launched a barrage of airstrikes at Gaza's southern city of Khan Younis overnight, according to the city's Nasser Hospital.
Many had hoped the US leader's regional visit could encourage a ceasefire deal or resume humanitarian aid to Gaza.
