Gaza: On April 28, 2025, deadly attacks unfolded across Gaza, Yemen, and southern Beirut. Israeli forces carried out fresh airstrikes on southern Beirut after issuing forced evacuation orders, while in northern Saada, Yemen, US forces bombed a detention center holding African migrants. Gaza also witnessed heavy predawn bombardments by Israeli forces.
In Gaza, medics confirmed that Israeli forces killed 23 Palestinians during predawn attacks, following the deaths of at least 53 more people across the Gaza Strip just a day earlier. Hospitals remain overwhelmed, and emergency teams are struggling to reach those trapped under rubble.
The Gaza strikes are part of Israel’s intensified military campaign, which continues to devastate residential neighborhoods and displace thousands of civilians. Humanitarian aid groups report severe shortages of food, medicine, and shelter.
This escalation marks a grim chapter in the region’s ongoing instability, as Israel’s war in Gaza and US interventions in Yemen fuel mounting civilian casualties and deepen humanitarian emergencies across the Middle East.
