Israeli Offensive in Gaza 'Intolerable', Says Red Cross
The International Committee of the Red Cross warns that continued Israeli military actions have caused over 62,000 Palestinian deaths and severe shortages of essential supplies in Gaza.
- The Red Cross described Israel's intensified military campaign in Gaza City as unacceptable amid escalating violence in August 2025.
- The intensification followed Hamas' attack on October 7, 2023, which killed 1,219 people and took 251 hostages, sparking the ongoing war in Gaza.
- Red Cross spokesman Christian Cardon highlighted that Gaza is completely sealed off, with increasingly limited availability of medical services, nourishment, and clean water, leading to deteriorating humanitarian conditions.
- The health ministry in Gaza, governed by Hamas, reports that Israel's counterattack has resulted in the deaths of more than 62,000 Palestinians, the majority of whom are civilians, though verification is limited due to media restrictions.
- The worsening conflict and restricted access threaten to deepen the humanitarian crisis, increasing displacement, deaths, and endangering humanitarian aid efforts in Gaza.
