Global Outrage Over Israeli Airstrike on Rafah: All You Need to Know

The city of Rafah in southern Gaza has been at the center of global attention after a devastating Israeli airstrike left 45 people dead and over 200 injured. The attack, which occurred on May 26 at a camp for displaced people, came in response to Hamas launching rockets in the Tel Aviv area.

The aftermath of the airstrike prompted the UN Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) to describe Gaza as “hell on earth”, with families seeking refuge but finding no safe place in the war-torn region. The health ministry in Gaza reported that the strikes primarily affected children and women, with 45 civilians losing their lives.

The Israeli military defended the attack, stating it was based on “precise intelligence” targeting “legitimate targets under international law”. However, the incident has sparked global outrage, with calls for a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel. The UN International Court of Justice (ICJ) also ordered Israel to halt its attack on Rafah, a ruling supported by 13 of 15 judges.

The phrase “All eyes on Rafah” has been circulating on social media as a show of solidarity with the city, with celebrities like Priyanka Chopra, Varun Dhawan, and Alia Bhatt joining the movement. The conflict between Hamas and Israel dates back to October 7, 2023, when Hamas initiated attacks on southern Israel, leading to a cycle of violence that has claimed numerous lives on both sides.

As the world watches the situation in Rafah unfold, the call for peace and humanitarian intervention grows louder, urging all parties involved to prioritize the safety and well-being of civilians caught in the crossfire.
