The war between Israel and Hamas is continuously increasing. Many people have died so far during this war. At the same time, many people have left the Gaza Strip and been displaced to other places.
At the same time, many more foreigners have agreed to leave the Gaza Strip on Thursday. The Hamas-run government said at least 195 Palestinians were killed in Israeli attacks on the Jabaliya refugee camp.
Foreign citizens entered Egypt
At least 320 foreign nationals, among a list of 500 people, as well as dozens of seriously injured Gazans, entered Egypt on Wednesday under a deal between Israel, Egypt, and Hamas. Passport holders from Australia, Austria, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Finland, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Jordan, the United Kingdom and the United States were among the evacuees.
Gaza border officials said the border crossing would be reopened on Thursday to allow more foreigners to leave. A diplomatic source said about 7,500 foreign passport holders would leave Gaza in about two weeks.
Israel has bombed Gaza from land, sea, and air in an offensive against Hamas militants in its campaign to eliminate Hamas following the Islamist group's cross-border attack on southern Israel on October 7.
Israel said Hamas had killed 1,400 people, mostly civilians, and taken more than 200 hostage.
8,796 Palestinians died in Israeli attacks
The Gaza Health Ministry says at least 8,796 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli strikes in the narrow coastal strip since October 7, including 3,648 children.
The Palestinian Red Crescent said explosions were heard early Thursday near al-Quds hospital in densely populated Gaza City.
Israeli officials had already warned to immediately evacuate the hospital, after which UN officials said it was impossible to do so without endangering the patients.
Death of two Hamas commanders
Israel said its strikes on Tuesday and Wednesday killed two Hamas military leaders in Jabaliya, Gaza's largest refugee camp. Israel said the group had command centers and other terrorist infrastructure under, near, and within civilian buildings, deliberately placing Gaza civilians at risk.
Gaza's Hamas-run media office said Thursday that two Israeli strikes on Jabaliya killed at least 195 Palestinians, while 120 were missing under the debris. At least 777 people were injured, a statement said.
Palestinians began searching for victims trapped under the debris on Wednesday. One witness said, "This is a massacre."
UN human rights officials said the attack on the camp could constitute a war crime.
The UN High Commissioner for Human Rights wrote on the social media site Can Come."
The Israeli military said one soldier was killed in Gaza on Wednesday. Fifteen died on Tuesday. Amid growing international appeals for a humanitarian pause in hostilities, conditions in the coastal region under Israeli attack and a tight blockade are becoming increasingly desperate. There is also a shortage of food, fuel, drinking water, and medicines.
Dr. Fathi Abu al-Hassan, a US passport holder waiting to enter Egypt on Wednesday, described poor conditions in Gaza, without water, food, or shelter.
Hospitals, including Gaza's only cancer hospital, have been forced to close due to fuel shortages. Israel has refused to allow humanitarian convoys to bring fuel.
Gaza Health Ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra said the main power generator at the Indonesian hospital was no longer working due to a lack of fuel.
The hospital was switching to a backup generator, but would no longer be able to power the morgue refrigerators and oxygen generators.
"If we don't get fuel in the next few days we will inevitably be in disaster," he said.
American diplomat leaves for Israel again
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken was scheduled to depart on Thursday for his second visit to Israel in less than a month. His spokesman said he planned to meet with Israeli officials, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, on Friday in a show of solidarity but also stressed the need to minimize Palestinian civilian casualties. Blinken will also stop in Jordan.
On Wednesday, Jordan recalled its ambassador from Tel Aviv until Israel stops its assault on Gaza. Israel said it regretted Jordan's decision.
The spokeswoman said that in Jordan, Blinken would underline the importance of protecting civilian lives and reiterate the US commitment to ensuring that Palestinians are not forcibly displaced from Gaza, a growing concern across the Arab world.
He will pursue negotiations led by Egypt and Qatar to secure the release of all hostages held by Hamas.
Also on Thursday, the U.S. House of Representatives is expected to pass a bill providing $14.3 billion in aid for Israel with Republican support. But it is unlikely to become law as it faces stiff opposition in the Democratic-controlled Senate and the White House has threatened a veto.
President Joe Biden wants a $106 billion bill that would provide funding for Ukraine, border security, and humanitarian aid, as well as Israel.
