Over 170 killed in Gaza in 24 hours as Israel intensifies assault

ALBAWABA- At least 70 Palestinians were killed in Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip since dawn Wednesday, including 11 civilians who were targeted while waiting for humanitarian aid. The death toll over the past 24 hours has surged to more than 170, making it one of the deadliest days in Israel's ongoing war on Gaza. Among the victims was the director of Gaza's Indonesia Hospital, who was killed alongside his wife and five children in an Israeli airstrike. Six more people were reported killed in Khan Younis. The situation inside the reception department is catastrophic. No doctors to follow up on patients, no proper spaces for care, and no enough ambulances for emergency cases. — TIMES OF GAZA (@Timesofgaza) July 2, 2025 At the same time, Gaza's Health Ministry said over 600 Palestinians have been killed and more than 4,278 wounded at Gaza Health Facilities (GHF) alone since the start of Israel's military campaign. Israeli officials have continued to issue menacing rhetoric, with one declaring, 'Everything will turn to dust' in Gaza City, a stark reflection of the scorched-earth strategy being pursued. Since the war began in October 2023, at least 57,012 Palestinians have been killed and 134,592 injured, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry. In the last 24 hours alone, 142 bodies were brought to hospitals, and 487 people were injured. Many more remain trapped under rubble as ongoing bombardments severely hinder rescue operations. Israel resumed full-scale attacks on March 18, violating a ceasefire and prisoner exchange deal brokered earlier this year. Since then, an additional 6,454 Palestinians have been killed and 22,551 wounded. In parallel, diplomatic efforts are ongoing. Hamas announced it is reviewing what U.S. President Donald Trump has described as a "final" ceasefire proposal. The group said it conducts "national consultations" on proposals from the Egyptian and Qatari mediators. Hamas stated that its priority is to reach an agreement that ensures an end to the aggression, the withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza, and the urgent delivery of humanitarian aid. President Trump claimed that Israel had agreed to a 60-day truce and warned Hamas that rejecting the deal would only lead to further devastation. "It will not get better — IT WILL ONLY GET WORSE," he said. In his first public remarks since Trump's announcement, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu reiterated his hardline stance: 'There will not be a Hamas. There will not be a Hamastan. We're not going back to that. It's over.' Meanwhile, legal pressure continues to mount. In November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, accusing them of war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
