Israeli Strikes on Gaza City Residences Kill Dozens, with Scores Trapped Under Rubble

HeadlineApr 09, 2025

Israeli airstrikes on eastern Gaza City have killed at least 29 Palestinians, with 80 others missing and dozens more wounded. Scores of people are believed to be trapped in the rubble after the strikes leveled 10 residential buildings.

At the United Nations, Secretary-General António Guterres on Tuesday reiterated his demands for Israel to end its total siege of Gaza, now in its sixth week.

Secretary-General António Guterres: “More than an entire month has passed without a drop of aid into Gaza — no food, no fuel, no medicine, no commercial supplies. As aid has dried up, the floodgates of horror have reopened. Gaza is a killing field, and civilians are in an endless death loop.”
