Since the war began on October 7, 2023, more than 62,000 Palestinians have lost their lives, while lakhs have been injured. The toll also includes over 200 media professionals, making journalism one of the most dangerous jobs in the region. Israel insists that Hamas remains its main target, but innocent civilians continue to pay the price.

The United Nations has raised alarm over a severe famine in Gaza, calling it the first such crisis in West Asia. UN aid chief Tom Fletcher said nearly five lakh people are facing extreme hunger, describing it as a “man-made tragedy.” He accused Israel of blocking food supplies, worsening the humanitarian crisis.

Israel, however, rejected the UN’s claims, stating that Hamas propaganda influenced the reports. Officials denied the presence of famine and defended their military operations as necessary for eliminating Hamas. The conflict, now dragging on for 22 months, shows little sign of resolution.
