Palestinians who have endured Israel’s genocidal war are still being targeted.

A so-called “ceasefire” agreed in October has not stopped the Israeli army’s attacks on the Gaza Strip. Nothing is off limits, including homes, tents sheltering the displaced and even funerals. The death toll is rising.

Israel says it is targeting Hamas fighters, but Gaza’s Health Ministry says most of those killed are women and children. The UN says Palestinians are stuck in a nightmare that’s difficult to reconcile with the existence of a truce. And talks to move the deal to the next phase have stalled.
