The relentless attacks have particularly targeted northern areas of the Gaza Strip, including Jabalia and Beit Lahia.

Local sources reported on Friday that Israeli forces carried out attacks on several homes, civilian targets, and shelter centers in different areas of Gaza over the past 24 hours, resulting in dozens of deaths and injuries. The large-scale campaign in northern Gaza has now entered its 77th day, with intensive bombings and a tight siege imposed on the area.

Deliberate attacks on ambulance and civil defense workers have left northern Gaza without any rescue services. Among the victims of the recent attacks was Hajj Yousef Al-Zard, his wife, two sons, and his son's family, who were killed in their family house in the Al-Daraj neighborhood of Gaza City on Thursday.

Israeli warships also bombed the Al-Mawasi area west of Rafah city. Additionally, a Palestinian and his wife were killed when Israeli warplanes targeted the Al-Kayalin family house in the Al-Sabra neighborhood south of Gaza City. The Palestinian Civil Defense reported that four Palestinians were killed and several more injured in a similar attack on the Abu Shanab family house in the Al-Sabra area.

Israeli forces also blew up residential buildings west of Jabalia camp, north of the Gaza Strip. Three other Palestinians were killed, and several others injured after a house belonging to the Al-Louh family was bombed near the Sultan Bakery on Al-Thalathini Street, west of Al-Sabra neighborhood.

Meanwhile, Israeli military vehicles stationed in the Al-Khulafa area in Jabalia camp opened heavy fire towards residential homes in Tal Al-Zaatar, north of the Gaza Strip. (ILKHA)
