According to medical sources and eyewitnesses, the attacks spanned various areas of the Gaza Strip, with concentrations in Gaza City, Khan Yunis, and the central refugee camps. Inhabited homes, displacement sites, and civilian gatherings were targeted.
In the Shati refugee camp west of Gaza City, 10 people, including women and five children, were killed in a horrific massacre following the bombing of the Joudeh family home. The attack also injured more than 30 civilians and sparked a fire inside the densely populated building, which was adjacent to other homes and displaced people's tents.
In another attack on the Shabir family home in the same camp, four Palestinians were killed, including a resident of Jenin. A Palestinian was also killed and five others were injured in an attack on a civilian gathering in the Tal al-Hawa neighborhood, southwest of the city, and another in the al-Tuffah neighborhood, further east.
In the latest raid, four Palestinians were killed north of Gaza City, as a result of a direct targeting of a civilian gathering.
In the central Gaza Strip, four Palestinians, including a father and his son, were killed in an Israeli airstrike that targeted three homes in Deir al-Balah and the al-Bureij and al-Nuseirat refugee camps. A Palestinian was also killed in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a civilian gathering north of al-Nuseirat.
New massacres in the south
In Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip, 10 Palestinians, including children, were killed and others injured in an Israeli airstrike on a tent camp housing displaced people near the al-Attar junction west of the city.
Two Palestinians were killed and others injured in a shelling of a tent for displaced persons in the al-Nimsawi area, and another in a similar attack in the al-Mawasi area. Four Palestinians, including two children, were killed in a shelling targeting a civilian vehicle west of Khan Yunis.
In Rafah, six Palestinians were killed and more than 50 others waiting to receive aid through the "American-Israeli Mechanism" were injured as a result of Israeli forces' gunfire west of the city.
Since October 7, 2023, Israel, with full US support, has been committing genocide in the Gaza Strip, including killing, starvation, destruction, and forced displacement, ignoring calls from the international community and decisions of the International Court of Justice.
The aggression left more than 195,000 Palestinians dead or wounded, the majority of whom were children and women. In addition, more than 10,000 people remain missing, hundreds of thousands have been displaced, and famine has claimed the lives of many, including dozens of children.
