The attacks targeted the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza and the Al-Zeitoun neighborhood in southern Gaza City.

In Jabalia, three civilians from the Siyam family were killed when their home in Al-Fakhoura, within the camp, was bombed. The injured were rushed to Kamal Adwan Hospital for treatment.

Meanwhile, two more civilians were killed in Al-Zeitoun when Israeli forces bombed Kashko Street, with additional residents suffering injuries.

The bombardment extended to other areas across the Gaza Strip. Residential buildings in northern Al-Bureij camp were destroyed, and a house in Al-Nuseirat camp's Al-Da'wa area was hit by an airstrike. Al-Sabra neighborhood in southern Gaza City also faced artillery shelling, particularly around the Abu Sharia Diwan area.

Since the start of the conflict on October 7, 2023, the Palestinian death toll has reached 41,020, the majority being women and children. An additional 94,925 individuals have been injured. Rescue efforts are ongoing but remain severely hindered by the destruction, with many victims still trapped under rubble or lying in the streets. (ILKHA)
