At least 14 civilians killed in israeli airstrikes on Rafah

At least 14 civilians were killed, and many others sustained injuries after residential homes in the Musabeh, Khirbat al-Adas, and al-Janena neighborhoods in Rafah were targeted by Israeli airstrikes.

In a simultaneous attack, israeli warplanes bombed a house belonging to the Hajj family west of the Nusseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip, leading to additional fatalities and injuries among civilians.

Witnesses recounted the grim scene as local citizens and rescue teams worked tirelessly to retrieve the bodies of the victims and provide assistance to the wounded. The injured were rushed to the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir el-Balah for treatment.

Meanwhile, Israeli artillery continued its bombardment, targeting areas east of the Jabalia refugee camp in the northern region of the besieged territory.

Medical sources revealed that the Palestinian death toll has surged to 31,726 since the onset of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip on October 7th of the previous year. Among the victims, the majority are reported to be children and women. (ILKHA)
