Hi there,

In this chaotic news cycle it may be tempting to tune out, but we hope you won’t—only an informed and engaged public can defend democracy. In these times of deep political polarization we need news that goes beyond play-by-play headlines, news that goes to the heart of each story by asking people to tell their own stories of abuses of power and injustice in their own words. If our journalism is important to you, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Israel Once Again Bombs Gaza “Safe Zones” as Latest Attacks Kill 39 Palestinians

HeadlineApr 30, 2025

Palestinian health officials say Israeli attacks have killed at least 39 people across the Gaza Strip over the past 24 hours. That includes three massive strikes on residential buildings in the Nuseirat refugee camp that survivors described as feeling like an “earthquake.” Overnight, Israel continued attacks on tents and other shelters for displaced Palestinian civilians in Khan Younis and al-Mawasi. Survivors say bodies of their loved ones were left unrecognizable by the airstrikes in an area Israel had designated as a so-called safe zone.

Umm Islam Ashour: “Do you see the rockets that fell on us and on the children at home? They were sleeping. We were sleeping deeply, only to get us out of the house like that. And we started running with the children at midnight. It is unfair, unfair, world.”
