Sixty Palestinians have been killed in Israeli shelling of the Gaza Strip since dawn on Monday, including two journalists and a doctor, according to medical sources. Six UN agencies have confirmed that the situation in the Gaza Strip constitutes "warlike acts with complete disregard for human life."
Thirteen Palestinians were killed and others injured on Monday evening after the Israeli army targeted two homes in the city of Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip, bringing the death toll since dawn from 28 to 60 Palestinians, amid the ongoing war of extermination in the Strip, now in its eighteenth month.
Israeli airstrikes targeted homes, tents, and civilian gatherings in various areas of the Gaza Strip, including a gathering of journalists, according to medical sources and eyewitnesses.
In the latest raids, nine Palestinians, including women, were killed and others were injured when Israeli aircraft bombed a house belonging to the Sabah family in the al-Baraka area, southwest of Deir al-Balah. The occupation also killed four Palestinians from the same family and injured others when it bombed another house in the city. Earlier on Monday, it targeted a house in Deir al-Balah, killing three Palestinians, in addition to killing another Palestinian by an Israeli drone east of the city.
In the southern Gaza Strip, seven Palestinians, including three children, were killed and others were injured in a bombing that targeted a food pantry in Khan Yunis. Two Palestinians were also killed in an Israeli drone strike that targeted a café near the city of Asdaa, north of Khan Yunis. A number of people were injured when another Israeli drone targeted a gathering of Palestinians in the Qizan al-Najjar area of the city. Earlier, a citizen was killed in an Israeli bombing of the town of Abasan al-Kabira, east of the city.
In the northern Gaza Strip, three Palestinians were killed and several others were injured in an Israeli shelling targeting a civilian gathering near the General Security Junction, northwest of Gaza City. Meanwhile, Israeli shelling of two civilian gatherings in the Zeitoun neighborhood (south of Gaza City) and the Jabalia town (north) of the Gaza Strip resulted in the martyrdom of five Palestinians and a number of others injured. Two other Palestinians were killed in an Israeli artillery attack on Al-Nazzaz Street in the Shuja'iyya neighborhood, east of Gaza City.
In the west of the city, a Palestinian was killed and others were injured in a bombing that targeted a gathering of civilians near Al-Wahda Tower. Nearby, two Palestinians, one of them a doctor, were killed when an Israeli drone targeted them on Al-Jalaa Street in the city center.
The director of the Indonesian Hospital, Marwan Sultan, told Anadolu Agency that "volunteer doctor Mahmoud Abu Amsha was martyred while on his way to work in the emergency department." He noted that he had been volunteering with them since the beginning of the genocide in October 2023.
