These devastating attacks resulted in the deaths of 107 Palestinians and left 176 others injured, bringing the total casualties since the onset of the Israeli aggression on Gaza on October 7 to a staggering 32,333 killed and 74,694 injured.
Amidst the relentless bombardment, many victims remain trapped under rubble, their fate uncertain as Israeli forces obstruct the efforts of ambulance and civil defense crews to reach them. The situation underscores the dire humanitarian crisis in Gaza, further exacerbated by the Israeli-enforced blockade, which has deepened the suffering of the population.
Among the recent atrocities, the Israeli bombardment of the Salman family's residence in Deir al-Balah resulted in the tragic loss of 22 lives. Additionally, Israeli warplanes conducted airstrikes on the al-Nusseirat refugee camp and targeted the Barhoum family's residence in the densely populated al-Zaytoun neighborhood, resulting in further casualties.
The Civil Defense in Gaza has expressed its grave concern over its inability to respond effectively to distress calls from Palestinians under attack in the al-Shati refugee camp west of Gaza City. Urgent appeals have been made to the United Nations Secretary-General for immediate intervention to provide the necessary support to protect civilians amidst the ongoing onslaught. (ILKHA)
