Global focus: Israeli attacks intensify in Gaza, humanitarian crisis worsens
A look at the current situation in Gaza
Since the beginning of 2025, Palestine, especially the Gaza Strip, is once again in the headlines of world news. The renewed war between Israel and Hamas has once again plunged the region into a quagmire of bloodshed, destruction and humanitarian crisis. According to the latest reports, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) have gained military control of more than 50 percent of Gaza.
Expansion of Buffer Zones: A New Approach to Land Grabbing
Israel has expanded the “buffer zone” in the Gaza Strip by three kilometers, resulting in the destruction of thousands of homes and agricultural lands. This buffer zone is essentially being established as a “no-go area” where any human activity is prohibited. According to human rights organizations, this practice is a clear violation of international law.
Magnitude of the humanitarian crisis: the number of displaced persons in the millions
United Nations concern
The United Nations and other international organizations have warned that the humanitarian crisis has intensified due to the ongoing attacks in Gaza. Thousands of families have been forced to migrate due to the non-ceasefire even during Ramadan. Malnutrition, lack of medical facilities, and non-availability of clean drinking water are worsening the situation.
The situation of the homeless
According to reports, till March 2025, more than 142,000 people have been displaced in just one month. Due to lack of space in the shelters, thousands of people are forced to live under the open sky.
Targeting journalists: an attack on press freedom
Bombing of Nasir Medical Complex
In the first week of April, an Israeli airstrike targeted a journalists’ camp near Nasir Medical Complex in Khan Yunis, killing two prominent Palestinian journalists and injuring several others. This attack has been strongly condemned by international media and journalistic organizations.
Condemnation of Reporters Without Borders
The international journalism organization “Reporters Without Borders” has accused Israel of war crimes and demanded that journalists be protected in war zones and that an independent investigation be conducted into the attack.
International reactions and political commentary
United Nations resolution
On 25 March 2025, the UN Security Council passed a resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire during the month of Ramadan. However, Israel continued to ignore this resolution and continued its attacks, which UN Special Envoy Tor Vansland expressed strong concern over.
The position of the Arab world
Many Arab countries, including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Jordan, have strongly condemned the Israeli aggression and have also presented a comprehensive plan for the reconstruction of Gaza under the control of the Palestinian Authority. These countries have emphasized that only peace talks and a two-state solution can guarantee lasting peace.
Israel’s position and future strategy
Netanyahu’s announcement
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has made it clear that long-term “security control” will be maintained over parts of Gaza. He also hinted at plans to evict some Palestinians from Gaza and move them to other areas, in what critics are calling “ethnic cleansing.”
Social media reactions and global solidarity
Viral hashtags
Hashtags like #PrayForGaza, #StopGenocideInGaza, and #FreePalestine are trending worldwide on social media. Millions of users are showing solidarity with the Palestinian people.
