Israeli airstrikes in Gaza have reportedly resulted in the deaths of at least 29 Palestinians, according to Palestinian sources. The strikes targeted areas including Bait Lahiya and Deir al-Balah. Meanwhile, the Iranian Foreign Minister arrived in Pakistan to discuss regional tensions and bilateral relations. With efforts for a ceasefire hampered by Hamas’ refusal to release hostages, the conflict continues to escalate as the Lebanese Hezbollah launched rocket attacks on northern Israel.
