Israeli forces launch more attacks on Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza as they increase pressure on Rafah in the south.

The United Nations' Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has renewed his call for "an immediate humanitarian ceasefire" in the Gaza Strip as Israeli forces have killed more than 35,000 Palestinians in the besieged territory since the attacks began in October, say officials.

In a video address to international donors gathered in Kuwait on Sunday, Guterres also called for "the unconditional release of all captives held by Hamas as well as an immediate surge in humanitarian aid" into Gaza.

"A ceasefire will only be the start," he said in the video, cautioning that "it will be a long road back from the devastation and trauma of this war".

As Guterres repeated his plea, Israeli forces hit multiple points in Gaza, displacing anew hundreds of thousands of refugees already fleeing the war. Israeli tanks rolled into Jabalia, while multiple strikes killed dozens of people in Beit Lahiya in the north and Rafah in the south.

Palestinian news agency Wafa reported that at least 12 bodies arrived at Kamal Adwan Hospital in the town of Beit Lahiya following what it described as the Israeli "carpet bombing".

Emad Oudeh, resident of Beit Lahiya, told Al Jazeera they did not know where to go as Israeli attacks intensified. "We are shocked. We do not know what to do. We are physically and mentally worn out. We are on the verge of going insane."

Al Jazeera's Tareq Abu Azzoum, reporting from Deir el-Balah in central Gaza, said Israeli tanks have started "to go deeper" into the Jabalia refugee camp.

Jabalia is the biggest of Gaza's eight refugee camps and is home to more than 100,000 people, most of them descendants of Palestinians who were driven from towns and villages in what is now Israel during the 1948 Arab-Israeli war that led to the creation of the state of Israel.

"We have been hearing from eyewitnesses on the ground, in that very densely populated area, that military tanks are surrounding evacuation centres and residential buildings," Abu Azzoum said.

Those fleeing Israeli bombardment also have to contend with an acute shortage of food and medical supplies in areas where they have taken shelter.

Mahmoud Basal of the Palestinian Civil Defence in Gaza said there were no more medical services or humanitarian aid being provided to displaced people in the northern part of the Strip.

"We have lost 80 percent of our capabilities and no one is responding to the appeals we make to international institutions," the civil defence spokesman said in a statement.

Imad Abu Zayda, an emergency doctor in Jabalia, told Al Jazeera that most of the injured arriving at his hospital were women and children, describing the situation as dire.

"We are operating with minimum facilities. No light due to the lack of fuel and there's no medical supplement available as Israel has expanded their operation in the area. We have no oxygen to give to patients," he said.

'No safe place in Gaza'

In central Gaza, the civil defence department reported at least two fatalities, a father and son, both doctors, in an Israeli strike in Deir el-Balah on Sunday.

Further south in Rafah, Gaza's southernmost city along the border with Egypt, the Kuwaiti hospital said it received the bodies of 18 people killed in Israeli strikes over the past 24 hours.

The UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, gave a similar estimate of "around 300,000 people" who have fled Rafah over the past week, decrying in a post on X the "forced and inhumane displacement of Palestinians" who have "nowhere safe to go" in Gaza.

Palestinians in Rafah, many of them displaced by the fighting elsewhere in the territory, piled water tanks, mattresses and other belongings onto vehicles and prepared to flee again.

"The artillery shelling didn't stop at all" for several days, said Mohammed Hamad, 24, who has left eastern Rafah for the city's west. "There is no safe place in Gaza where we can take refuge."

Residents were told to go to the "humanitarian zone" of al-Mawasi, on the coast northwest of Rafah, though aid groups have warned it was not ready for an influx of people.

EU chief Charles Michel, however, said on social media that Rafah civilians were being ordered to "unsafe zones", denouncing it as "unacceptable".

This article provides many bias's, mostly in favor of the Israeli people. The first one noticed was the headline, which used works such as "sinister" and "inflame" and "most hostages". These words make put the Palestinians in a violent light, and tell the reader that what they are doing is something horrid. The word "most" is also used to convey that the majority of the hostages are being kept, which will not benefit Israel. The document itself uses small quote sections which highlight only the information the news source wants the reader to see.

The potential audience of this news source is the Israeli people. It is published towards them in hopes of the citizens seeing the 'violent' things that Hamas and the Palestinians are doing to their home and people.

The argument of the article is essentially that Palestine and the Hamas are very inconsistent in their claims and promises, specifically regarding the safety and release of Israeli hostages, as well as the ceasefire agreements which go along with them

Officials from Israel, Hamas and Qatar have cautioned against US President Joe Biden's optimism that a hostage-for-ceasefire deal in Gaza could be reached by the end of this week, suggesting that differences remain as negotiators work to secure an agreement.

# data[].attributes.body
The article provides a bias which favors the Palestinians. This is shown through a variety of ways, the most prominent being the title. The title uses stats such as "35,000 Palestinians killed" to show the great number of deaths. The title also states words such as "urges" to make the situation seem like it's desperate and there is not a lot of time to act. Some other examples of this bias being shown are the shortened quotes and the language used. These shortened quotes contain little to no background information and state important information that could be misinterpreted without it. The language used also can sway the argument, word such as "strikes" instead of attacks as an example.

# data[].attributes.body
The bias of this article is towards both Israel and Palestine, as it is written from an American perspective which shares both sides of the story. The title doesn't specifically shame any group, and states the two countries perspective as the same, through they are on opposing sides. The article itself does not get into any emotional parts of the story, instead simply stating quotes and facts from both sides. The American bias is shortly represented, and only states that the US governments wants to end the war between the two sides.

The potential audience of this article is the Palestinian people. The article shames the Israeli people for treating them in such a way that they have "no safe place", and informs the wider public of the acts that the Israeli's are committing. They do this in ways that are very evident of exaggeration, using the articles language to do so.

The potential audience of this news source is the American people, but it also could be towards the Palestinian people or the Israeli people. The article is written by an US news source, and it's information is purely informational other than the support the US shares towards the idea of ceasefire. Both sides are represented through quotes and idea's provided by their respective government figures, meaning that their is potential for either side to read.

# data[].attributes.body
The argument of this article is that the the attacks from Israel onto Gaza are destroying any chances of survival for the citizens living there, and that an ceasefire is need to prevent permanent and inhumane destruction. The article proves this by announcing high death numbers and the insanity that the citizens who have survived to this point are feeling.

# data[].attributes.body
This article argues that a ceasefire agreement should be created and signed, as it would benefit both Israel and Palestine, as well as the US. It also highlights the current issues in the way of this agreement, the hostage situation for example.

The consideration of differing perspectives is needed so that both sides opinions can be fully represented, eliminating any misinformation and bias that other sources may spread. Different perspectives carry specific opinions, each being different even in slight ways. For example, the Israeli people paint themself as peace bringers in the arguments of ceasefire and hostages. They state that they are "peace bringers" (Horovitz), and speak mostly on the topic of the hostages taken from them, rather then the hostages that they take themselves. The Palestinian people of the other hand are highlighting the inhumane actions that the Israelis are committing against them, without mentioning what they have committed themselves, similarly to what the Israelis did in their article. The article states specifically that an "immediate humanitarian ceasefire"(Guterres) is needed due to the acts committed against them. This shows their support for the ceasefire, and paints Israel as being the ones who refuse to work with Palestine on implementing it. A final neutral US perspective provides insight from both sides, as well as mentioning their support for peace, but also how hard it is for both sides to agree to ceasefire. The article states that "what’s underpinning the president’s optimism is looking at the broad outlines of a deal that we have put in place through negotiations last week and negotiations that are continuing through this week" (Miller). This quote shows the US perspective on the ceasefire agreements, and how they believe that the issue is negotiations between the two parties. Seeing these three perspectives provides a broad view of the situation. Both sides, as well as a neutral party, have their opinions on the ceasefire situation well represented. This allows for the reader to intake a variety of information, and give a fair and unbiased summary of what really is happening without exaggerations.
