The Israeli military continued to carry out airstrikes in various parts of the Gaza Strip on the 12th. In addition, exchanges continued with Hezbollah, a Shiite Islamic group from neighboring Lebanon.
Hezbollah carried out its largest attack to date with over 100 rockets, further escalating the fighting. According to local health authorities, 31,184 people have died so far in the fighting, including seven people, including a child, in Gaza City in the north. There are concerns that the fighting may escalate further, and that it may expand.
