Since renewing its assault on March 18, the Israeli army has reportedly killed nearly 1,400 people and injured over 3,400, breaking a January ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has pledged to intensify attacks on Gaza amid efforts to implement a controversial plan aimed at displacing Palestinians. Since October 2023, more than 50,700 Palestinians, predominantly women and children, have lost their lives in the conflict. The International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants last November for Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity, while Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice regarding its actions in Gaza.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Crowds gathered in various cities throughout the Arab world on Monday, demanding an end to Israel&#8217;s ongoing military offensive in the Gaza Strip, Anadolu Agency reported.
