Overview

  • Israeli warplanes demolished the 15-story Sousi Tower in Gaza City a day after Mushtaha Tower was razed, with Defense Minister Israel Katz posting video of the collapse and no immediate casualty toll reported.
  • The military issued new evacuation orders telling residents to relocate to a designated “humanitarian zone” in al-Mawasi and parts of Khan Younis, saying services such as food, medical care and shelter would be provided.
  • United Nations reporting and aid groups describe al-Mawasi as overcrowded and unsafe, while local activists estimate that most Gaza City residents are refusing or unable to leave.
  • The IDF says the targeted high-rises housed Hamas infrastructure, a claim rejected by Hamas and building administrators who say the towers were residential and sheltering displaced families.
  • Families of Israeli hostages led protests against the expanded offensive, as Gaza’s Health Ministry reports more than 64,000 Palestinians killed since 2023 and humanitarian monitors cite famine conditions in parts of the enclave.
