Violent strikes hit the Bureij, Maghazi, and Nusseirat camps, as Netanyahu said the 'war not close to conclusion'.

Israel's war on Gaza has entered its 81st day with a no let-up in the airstrikes that have killed tens of thousands of Palestinians so far. Early this morning, Israeli aircraft launched a series of intense strikes targeting the Bureij, Maghazi, and Nusseirat camps in the eastern central area of the Gaza Strip.

The Israeli military's continued indiscriminate attacks killed and injured many people, with the majority being women and children.

On the ground, heavy fighting continued between Palestinian fighters and Israeli forces, which have made incursions into several areas of the Gaza Strip amid fierce resistance by Hamas and other armed groups.

International observers and humanitarian organizations continue to express concern over the escalating violence and its devastating impact on the civilian population. At least 20,674 people have been killed so far - most of them women and children, and 54,536 injured according to figures from the Palestinian health ministry.
