US Edition25 people killed in Gaza as Gaza City becomes the focus of famine and a military offensive
- On August 23, 2025, at least 25 Palestinians lost their lives in Gaza due to Israeli attacks involving both airstrikes and shootings, occurring amid worsening famine and ongoing conflict in Gaza City.
- The violence follows a 22-month Israeli offensive triggered by Hamas attacks on October 7, 2023, with preparations underway for a possible new military operation in Gaza City.
- Reports indicate that around 500,000 individuals in Gaza are experiencing severe hunger due to ongoing blockades and limited humanitarian aid, with displaced populations becoming increasingly at risk amid intensified airstrikes and ground operations.
- UNRWA Commissioner-General urged Israel to acknowledge the famine it has caused, while Israel's government rejected the famine report as an 'outright lie' and accused Hamas of starving hostages; grieving relatives pleaded for a truce, saying, 'We want to rest.'
- The ongoing humanitarian crisis and military escalation suggest continued civilian suffering, displacement, and international pressure as ceasefire efforts remain on hold awaiting Israel's response.
