At least 91 Palestinian people were killed on Saturday in relentless Israeli attacks throughout the Gaza Strip, including at least 45 in Gaza City, as the military intensified its widely criticized Gaza campaign. The deaths marked a surge in violence, bringing the total number of fatalities to nearly 1,700 since October. Many of the dead and injured were found in areas Israel had identified as 'safe' zones, challenging claims that civilians were not being targeted. The Israeli military has come under intense international pressure for its tactics during the conflict.
