Overview

• Israeli forces deployed tanks and drones to open fire on hundreds of Palestinians waiting for aid trucks early Tuesday in central Gaza, killing at least 25 and wounding 146.
• Since late May, U.N. and Gaza health officials say Israeli fire on crowds at aid distribution points has killed over 450 Palestinians and wounded nearly 3,500.
• Iran has launched multiple missile barrages into Israel in retaliation for June airstrikes on its nuclear and military infrastructure, causing civilian casualties and widespread damage in Tel Aviv and other cities.
• The United States escalated the conflict over the weekend by bombing three key Iranian nuclear sites, which it said crippled Tehran’s nuclear capabilities.
• Gaza residents warn that global focus on the Israel-Iran war risks sidelining the two-year humanitarian catastrophe in the enclave, where starvation and fuel shortages have crippled hospitals and essential services.
