Hey everyone! Let’s talk about some important news happening in the world 🌍. On Monday, there were heavy airstrikes in Gaza, a small area where many people live. At least 60 people lost their lives, which is very sad 😢.
The airstrikes were carried out by Israel. At the same time, some Israeli officials were going to Washington, D.C., in the United States to talk about making peace 🤝. The U.S. President, Donald Trump, wants both sides to stop fighting and come to an agreement.
Because of the fighting, many families had to leave their homes 🏠. The Israeli army told people living in northern Gaza to evacuate, which means to move to a safer place. Imagine having to pack up and leave your home quickly; that would be really hard.
There were reports that tanks moved into areas near Gaza City, and planes bombed some places where people were staying for safety, like schools 🏫. It’s very scary when places that should be safe are not safe anymore.
Among those who were hurt or killed were women, children, and even a local journalist who was reporting on what’s happening 🎤. Journalists are people who tell us about the news. A group that supports journalists said that over 220 journalists have died in Gaza since October 2023, which is a big number.
The Israeli military said they were targeting places where militants, or fighters, were located. They also said they tried to avoid hurting civilians, which means regular people who are not fighting.
It’s a difficult situation, and many people around the world are hoping for peace soon 🕊️. It’s important to care about what’s happening in other places, even if they are far away.
