According to local health authorities, the death toll from the israeli onslaught since October 7 has reached a staggering 31,645, with an additional 73,676 individuals sustaining injuries. Among the victims, a significant number are women and children.

In the early hours of Sunday, Israeli warplanes and artillery targeted several areas in the south and northeast of Khan Yunis, as well as in the north of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

The airstrikes coincided with artillery shelling and gunfire in the northeast of Khan Yunis, according to local sources.

Additionally, Israeli warplanes conducted an airstrike in the northeast of Rafah, further intensifying the assault on the territory.

Simultaneously, a house in the Shuja'iya neighborhood of Gaza City was bombed, along with areas west of the city.

Late last night, a devastating airstrike targeted a house belonging to the Thabet family in the Bushara neighborhood of Deir al-Balah city in central Gaza, resulting in the deaths of twelve civilians, including children and women, with dozens more injured.

Rescue efforts are hampered as ambulance and rescue teams struggle to reach many trapped casualties and retrieve bodies under the rubble or scattered on roads across the enclave, due to ongoing obstruction by Israeli occupation forces.

Despite the challenges, rescue teams are tirelessly working to reach those in need, with many individuals still trapped and awaiting assistance, according to local sources. (ILKHA)
