Gaza, March 25, 2025 – Israeli forces intensified operations across besieged Gaza, killing 37 people, including seven children, in strikes launched Tuesday, local time.

Over the past week, 270 children lost lives in Gaza, according to international group Save the Children. Amid rising unrest, Netanyahu’s administration ordered thousands of residents to evacuate Jabalia, Beit Lahiya, Beit Hanoun, and Shujaiya areas.

Strikes extended beyond Gaza hitting southern Syria where at least six died. Tel Aviv claims these attacks respond to Syrian military actions though details on Israeli troop positions during the strikes remain undisclosed. Violence also flared along Lebanon’s western border villages with Israeli forces firing shots and setting blazes. Earlier, an explosion rocked Al-Jabal, blamed on Israeli action.

Save the Children warned ongoing assaults threaten countless young lives, as Gaza residents face displacement with nowhere safe to flee.

In Syria strikes add to regional tension raising fears of broader conflict. Netanyahu’s government defends operations as necessary security measures but critics slam relentless bombardment for devastating civilian toll, especially among children.

No clear timeline emerged for halting attacks leaving Gaza and neighboring regions braced for more violence. Humanitarian groups urge immediate ceasefire to protect vulnerable populations caught in crossfire.
