Dozens of deaths , both civilians and soldiers, is the dramatic toll of the attacks carried out by the Israeli army and a militant group in the city of Aleppo , Syria . The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights speaks of at least 30 deaths .
The Israeli airstrikes against several areas in the countryside surrounding Aleppo occurred "in conjunction" with a drone attack against civilians that the ministry described as being conducted by "terrorist organizations" from the city of Idlib , according to several Arab media reports.
The Syrian government, for its part, has not yet provided official figures on the number of victims. A military source told the official SANA news agency that "at around 1.45 am the Israeli enemy launched an air attack from the direction of Athriya, southeast of Aleppo", adding that "civilians and military personnel" were killed and injured in the attack.
Meanwhile, the bombings on the Gaza Strip continue unabated , with Biden's words arriving in the last few hours. «There are too many innocent victims, Israeli and Palestinian . We must provide more food, medicine and supplies for the Palestinians," the president of the United States said during a fundraising event in New York. Biden stressed that «we cannot forget that the very existence of Israel is at stake. The Israelis were massacred. Imagine if this happened in the United States. It is understandable that Israel has such deep anger. But we must stop the war effort that causes significant deaths of innocent civilians."
On the case of humanitarian aid, there is also the intervention of the UN, which warns the Jewish state about the famine in the Gaza Strip: hunger used as a weapon is a war crime.
The International Court of Justice has ordered Israel to provide urgent humanitarian assistance to the Palestinian enclave.
