A dramatic video circulating on social media platform X has revealed widespread fires engulfing landscapes near Beit Lahia in northern Gaza, illustrating the severe intensity of recent Israeli airstrikes.
The footage, which has garnered significant attention online, emerged amid reports of escalated hostilities. According to Al Jazeera, the airstrikes on September 30, 2025, resulted in the deaths of at least 59 Palestinians. The video captures the devastating aftermath, with large areas of the northern Gaza region consumed by fire.
The conflict, now in its third year, was sparked by Hamas’s attack on Israel on October 7, 2023. The ongoing war has taken a catastrophic human toll, with reports indicating over 55,000 Palestinian deaths, the vast majority of whom are civilians. The humanitarian crisis is profound, with 1.9 million people displaced and 95% of homes in northern Gaza destroyed.
The viral post comes at a critical diplomatic moment. As the footage spread, U.S. President Donald Trump met with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to discuss a U.S.-brokered peace proposal. Hamas officials have stated they are reviewing the plan, but talks remain stalled as bombardments continue.
The video has amplified calls for an end to the violence, with one user, Ryan Rozbiani, posting: “This is Gaza – It Needs to End NOW… Imagine living like this for 2 years. May God Bring them Justice.”
