STORYLINE:
Plumes of smoke were seen rising over the Gaza Strip's skyline on Tuesday morning as the latest war between Israel and Hamas raged on.

More than two-thirds of Gaza’s population of 2.3 million have fled their homes during the ongoing conflict.

The UN agency for Palestinian refugees, or UNRWA, is struggling to provide basic services to hundreds of thousands of displaced people.

Seventeen of its facilities have been directly hit, the agency said.

More than 12,700 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza, according to the Palestinian Health Ministry in the West Bank, which coordinates with officials in the Health Ministry of Hamas-run Gaza.

Officials there say another 4,000 are missing.

Their counts do not differentiate between civilians and combatants.

Israel says it has killed thousands of militants.

About 1,200 people have been killed on the Israeli side, mainly civilians during the Oct. 7 attack, in which Hamas dragged some 240 captives back into Gaza.

The military says 66 Israeli soldiers have been killed in Gaza ground operations.
