가자지구 사망자 8천 명 넘어 이란 “레드라인 넘었다“ The death toll in Gaza continues to increase, now crossing 8-thousand. Meanwhile, Iran's president warned Israel has “crossed the redline“ in the region, which “may force everyone to take action.“ Lee Seung-jae has more. The death toll in Gaza has surpassed 8-thousand since armed conflict began between Israel and Hamas on October 7th. According to Gaza's health ministry, the number injured as a result of Israeli airstrikes is also approaching 20-thousand. The ministry added that the death toll may actually be much higher, with many people still trapped under rubble. As rescue teams continue their search and rescue operations, a total of 18-hundred people are reportedly missing, with one-thousand of them being children. With Israel continuing air raids in Gaza, Iranian president Ebrahim Raisi said Sunday that Israel has “crossed the red line“ in Gaza, which “may force everyone to take action“, hinting at the possibility Tehran getting involved in the conflict. Taking to social media, President Raisi said the U.S. told Iran not to do anything, but Washington continues to give “widespread support to Israel.“ While the U.S. had initially questioned Iran's involvement in the October 7th attacks, U.S. intelligence suggested that Iranian officials were also surprised by Hamas’ attack, and that Tehran was not directly involved in its planning, resourcing or approval. Meanwhile, during a visit to Nepal, UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres called for the protection of all civilians in Gaza. While Guterres condemned the October 7th attacks by Hamas, he expressed regret that Israel has intensified its military operations, instead of a humanitarian pause supported by the international community. He also urged “those with responsibility to step back from the brink“, and called the situation in Gaza, a “humanitarian catastrophe.“ Guterres visited the country to extend condolences to the families of 10 Nepalese students killed by Hamas in southern Israel on October 7th.
