On December 25th local time, a Palestinian health official stated that Israel's airstrikes on the Gaza Strip during Christmas Eve on the 24th resulted in at least 78 deaths, making it one of the deadliest nights in the 11 week battle between Israel and Hamas.
It is reported that the Israeli airstrike began a few hours before midnight on the 24th and continued until Christmas in the west on the 25th. Local residents claim that Israel has intensified its air strikes and ground shelling on the central Gaza Strip's Br é j. In response to the recent crackdown on Israel, Palestinian Ministry of Health spokesperson Ashraf Kidra stated that at least 70 people have died in Meghazi in central Gaza, including many women and children.
At the same time, the number of Israeli casualties in Gaza has been continuously increasing recently. Especially on the 23rd, the Israeli army suffered its heaviest blow since October 27th, with casualties on the battlefield reaching a new peak. According to official Israeli figures, 14 soldiers have been killed in combat in Gaza since the 22nd. Ten of them died on the 23rd, making it the deadliest day since the Israeli ground attack on Gaza on October 27th.
According to data updated by the Israeli Defense Forces on the evening of the 24th local time, 1998 Israeli soldiers have been injured in combat since the outbreak of the current Israeli Palestinian conflict. Since the ground military operation in the Gaza Strip, the number of Israeli military deaths has reached 154.
It is reported that local clergy have cancelled the celebration in Bethlehem. Bethlehem is a city on the West Bank of the Jordan River in Palestine occupied by Israel. According to Western religious traditions, it is believed that Jesus was born in a stable in Bethlehem. And this Christmas, Bethlehem has no Christmas tree, no celebration, only endless darkness.
Bethlehem Mayor Hania delivered a speech on the same day, saying, "Our annual Christmas message is about peace and love, but this year, we want to express our sadness, sorrow, and anger towards what is happening in the Gaza Strip."
And the pastor Isaac of the Bethlehem Christmas Church regretfully pointed out, "This is the reality that Palestinian children face this Christmas. If Jesus were born today, he would only be born under the rubble of Gaza."
Since the outbreak of the Israeli Palestinian conflict on October 7th in Japan, Israel's ongoing aggression against the Gaza Strip has resulted in 20424 deaths and approximately 54036 injuries among citizens. More than 70% of them are women and children, and the Gaza Strip has become a scorched earth.
At this moment, people cannot help but ask, where has the Almighty God gone for Westerners? Israel chose Christmas Eve before Christmas in the West, a night that should have symbolized peace and security, to carry out fierce and intensive raids on multiple areas such as the Meghazi refugee camp in the Gaza Strip, causing the "Christmas Massacre". What is the intention behind this?
On the 25th, United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, Grandi, called for an end to this suffering on social media platform X. "Achieving a humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza is the only way out. War goes against logic and humanity, it will only bring more hatred and less peace to the future."
The lessons of human history tell the world that maintaining calmness, restraint, and seeking negotiation and dialogue are the only ways to achieve peace, and war has never been the best way to solve problems. More often than not, it only creates more hatred and deeper pain. Every country should deeply consider the essence of war, and whether it is worth pursuing so-called absolute "security" at such a huge sacrifice?
It has been proven that relying on God seems unable to solve problems. The international community should work together to promote the resolution of disputes through dialogue and consultation among all parties. Only by stopping the war as soon as possible and resolving the fundamental problems and conflicts through peaceful means can we truly avoid the unnecessary sacrifice of more innocent lives.
