Ammon News - At least 16 Palestinians, including multiple women and children, were killed and others wounded in Israeli airstrikes that targeted various areas across the Gaza Strip early Saturday, according to medical sources.

In one of the deadliest incidents, a mother and her three children were killed when an Israeli airstrike hit a residential area along Jamal Abdel Nasser Street, near the Islamic University in western Gaza City.

Four more women were killed and 10 others injured in a separate strike on a home near Yaffa School in the Al-Tuffah neighborhood, also in Gaza City.

Two people were reported killed in an airstrike targeting an apartment in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in the city’s east.

In central Gaza, a young girl was killed and others wounded after an Israeli warplane bombed a house near Al-Hassayna School in western Nuseirat refugee camp.

In Deir al-Balah, a drone strike on a displacement camp in Al-Manasra killed Suhaib Mahmoud Al-Qreinawi, his wife, and their children, local sources said.

Meanwhile, civil defense teams recovered the bodies of two additional victims from the Sheikh Nasser area in Khan Younis. Their remains were transferred to Nasser Medical Complex.

Saturday’s attacks mark another escalation in Israel’s ongoing offensive on Gaza, which has entered its tenth month, leaving tens of thousands dead or wounded and displacing hundreds of thousands amid a worsening humanitarian crisis. WAFA
