Palestinian rights advocates warned Sunday that Israel's ongoing military operations have pushed Gaza's education system toward collapse, according to IMEMC News. The destruction has severely disrupted schooling across the territory, with schools damaged or repurposed for emergency shelter, leaving hundreds of thousands of students without regular access to education.
British Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband called for a firmer international response to the worsening humanitarian and medical crisis in Gaza. He cited the scale of civilian suffering, including shortages of food, clean water, and medical supplies. The statement reflected growing concern among Western officials over conditions in the besieged territory.
