Ammon News - Dozens of innocent civilians were killed this morning in a series of continued Israeli airstrikes on Rafah and Khan Younis, in the southern Gaza Strip, bringing the death toll across the enclave since the early hours of the day to 30, according to medical sources.

Three Palestinians were killed and several others injured when Israeli forces struck a vehicle east of Khan Younis.

In another attack, a citizen was killed in an Israeli drone strike on the Al-Nasr neighborhood, north of Rafah. Meanwhile, two more people were killed in an Israeli bombardment targeting displaced people in the Tal Al-Sultan neighborhood to the west of the city.

Additionally, several others sustained injuries after Israeli occupation forces hit a house belonging to the Shaat family in the Al-Nasr neighborhood of northern Rafah.

Meanwhile, Israeli artillery continues to shell farmland in the Abu Safiya area, east of Jabalia, in the northern Gaza Strip, as well as areas in nearby Beit Hanoun.

Since Israel’s resumption of its genocidal war on Gaza early Tuesday morning, the ongoing assault has resulted in nearly 600 people killed and over a thousand injured by Thursday evening, with 70% of the casualties being women, children, and elderly.

The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 2023 has so far resulted in at least 49,747 documented Palestinian fatalities, with over 113,213 others injured.

Thousands of victims are feared trapped under rubble, inaccessible to emergency and civil defense teams due to Israeli attacks.

Israel's genocidal attacks continue unabated despite calls from the UN Security Council for an immediate ceasefire and directives from the International Court of Justice urging measures to prevent genocide and alleviate the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza. WAFA
