The Israeli enemy continues its aggression by air, land, and sea, committing more brutal massacres against Palestinian families.
The Interior Ministry in Gaza announced a series of airstrikes that targeted the homes of citizens in various parts of the Gaza Strip, destroying them on the heads of their residents. The latest of these massacres was the targeting of a house belonging to the “Akkad” family and another to the “Shabeer” family in Khan Yunis, resulting in the deaths of a large number of martyrs and wounded.
Four citizens, including three children, were also killed in an initial toll from the targeting of an Israeli aircraft of the house of the Farjallah family in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the center of the Gaza Strip. Israeli aircraft also destroyed a house belonging to the Darwish family over the heads of its residents in the Zawaida town in the center of the Gaza Strip.

The Civil Defense headquarters in the Tel Al-Hawa neighborhood in eastern Gaza City was also bombed, killing five Palestinian firefighters and injuring several others. The Gaza Governmental Media Office said that this crime is a “new war crime that is added to the crimes of the occupation that require accountability, prosecution, and punishment.”
The Palestinian Ministry of Labor in Gaza announced that the scale of destruction caused by the ongoing aggression on residential neighborhoods in the Gaza Strip is “very widespread and unprecedented compared to the 2014”.
