The UN reported ongoing Israeli airstrikes and shelling in Gaza, warning that attacks on residential areas are endangering civilians amidst a two-year ceasefire. UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric emphasized that international humanitarian law protects civilians and called for the lifting of Israeli restrictions on humanitarian aid. Despite a ceasefire agreement initiated in October 2023, violations have led to significant civilian casualties and infrastructure destruction. Urgent solutions for displaced families and reconstruction efforts, estimated at $70 billion, are needed.
