Intense Israeli airstrikes on northern Gaza, particularly Jabalia refugee camp, dominated the day's news. Multiple reports throughout the day indicated escalating casualties and destruction in Jabalia, with UNRWA stating Israel denied urgent requests to evacuate those trapped under rubble. The Palestinian Ministry of Public Works reported over 250,000 housing units destroyed in Gaza. Al-Qassam Brigades claimed successful operations against Israeli forces in Jabalia, including an ambush on an engineering unit. Reports emerged of mass executions and forced displacement in the area. International concerns grew over the potential forced transfer of northern Gaza residents. In diplomatic developments, the US announced $5.2 billion in aid to Israel, while efforts to revive prisoner exchange negotiations continued.
