The assaults, which were described as a new wave of aggression, involved indiscriminate bombing of residential areas and displaced groups.

According to the GMO, over 1,200 appeals for assistance were received from besieged families seeking rescue. The statement detailed that the Israeli occupation forces commenced their offensive early this morning, targeting civilian homes and shelters.

Of the 57 deceased, 49 were transported to the Nasser Medical Complex, while others were taken to different hospitals. The GMO highlighted that many victims remained trapped under rubble or lying in the streets due to the intensity of the bombings, which hindered the efforts of civil defense teams.

The Israeli forces reportedly bombed at least 10 homes, with some attacks occurring while residents were still inside. The GMO condemned these actions as "horrific massacres" and held the Israeli occupation forces and the U.S. administration responsible for the ongoing violence against the Palestinian people.

The statement also called for immediate international attention and action to address the humanitarian crisis in Khan Yunis. (ILKHA)
