It seems like you’ve provided a summary of the current situation in Gaza, with Israel’s military campaign and blockade continuing despite international condemnation. The article mentions that at least 38 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip within a half-hour, and there are reports of civilian casualties, including children.
Some key points from the article include:
* Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has stated that Israel will take “control of the entire Strip” and prevent looting by Hamas as Gazans await the delivery of humanitarian aid.
* Aid agencies and world leaders have condemned Israel’s blockade, with British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer calling the situation in Gaza “intolerable” and Ursula von der Leyen, President of the European Commission, demanding that the blockade be lifted immediately.
* The article also mentions that 136 deaths were reported by Gaza’s Hamas health ministry in the last 24 hours, bringing the total death toll since the beginning of the war on October 7 to 53,475.
This is a tragic and complex situation, with many lives lost and livelihoods disrupted.
