Israel Kills Over 100 in Gaza as Palestinians Mark 77 Years Since the Nakba

05/15/2025

At least 115 Palestinians, mostly women and children, have been killed in a wave of Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip, as indirect ceasefire talks between Israel and Hamas continue. 

At least 61 people were killed overnight and early in a barrage of attacks on the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis, according to local health officials. In Jabalia in northern Gaza, an Israeli strike on al-Tawbah medical clinic killed at least 15 people and wounded several others, the health ministry said. Israel’s army also attacked three hospitals in north and south Gaza. 

The latest killings come amid new waves of forced displacement. Thousands fled Gaza City after the Israeli military issued forced evacuation orders the day before. 

The attacks come as Palestinians mark the 77th anniversary of the Nakba, or catastrophe, when more than 750,000 Palestinians were forcibly expelled by Zionist paramilitary groups during the creation of Israel in 1948.
