The Israeli occupation forces continue their genocidal war on the Gaza Strip for the 217th consecutive day, amid an escalation in massacres and the bombing of homes on the heads of their residents, in Rafah and in the Gaza and Jabalia neighborhoods, with the continued closure of crossings and the halting of the entry of aid, which portends a humanitarian catastrophe throughout the besieged Strip.
The occupation forces continued their incursion into eastern Rafah for the fourth day in a row, amid violent air and artillery bombardment. The occupation forces also continued their incursion into the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood in southern Gaza for the second day in a row.
After midnight, Israeli helicopters opened heavy fire east of the city of Rafah.
Last night, one martyr was killed and others were injured when the occupation army targeted a house in the Beach Camp, west of Gaza City.
A citizen and three of his children were also killed and others were injured when the occupation bombed a house in Jabalia in the northern Gaza Strip.
On Thursday, the Ministry of Health announced that 60 martyrs and 110 injured arrived at hospitals as a result of the occupation’s massacres within 24 hours, while a number of victims are still under rubble and on the roads and ambulance and civil defense crews cannot reach them.
The Ministry stated that the toll of the Israeli aggression rose to 34,904 martyrs and 78,514 injuries since the seventh of last October.
