On Sunday morning, four Palestinians were killed and others were injured when Israeli occupation aircraft targeted and bombed two residential apartments in the Jabalia camp, located in the northern Gaza Strip.
Local sources reported that ambulance and rescue teams recovered the bodies of four martyrs and injured individuals, including children and women, from beneath the rubble of two residential apartments bombed by the occupation forces on al-Houja Street in Jabalia camp.
A Palestinian woman and a child were killed, and several others were injured when occupation forces bombed a house in the town of Abasan al-Kabira, located east of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip.
Occupation aircraft targeted a house in the al-Nuseirat camp, situated in the central Gaza Strip, while artillery fire struck an apartment in the al-Nouri Tower to the north of the camp, igniting a fire in the apartment.
In recent hours, the Israeli occupation forces committed a massacre against an entire family, which has since been removed from the civil registry. 15 members of the family were killed, with many arriving at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in pieces. This tragedy occurred after the occupation bombed a warehouse where the family of martyr Sami al-Ajla had sought refuge, located in the al-Zawaida area in the central Gaza Strip.
Since October 7, 2023, the occupation forces have sustained their aggression against the Gaza Strip by land, sea, and air. This ongoing aggression has led to the martyrdom of 40,074 citizens and injuries to 92,537 others. Thousands of victims remain trapped under the rubble or stranded on the roads, with ambulance and rescue crews unable to reach them.
Gaza rubble conceals gruesome horrors
Ten months into "Israel's" war on Gaza, the death toll has climbed past 40,000, according to Gaza's health authorities. The vast majority of those killed are civilians, with the figure representing nearly 2% of Gaza's prewar population—approximately one in every 50 residents.
Yet, even this staggering number does not capture the full scale of Palestinian losses.
Dr. Marwan al-Hams, director of field hospitals at the Palestinian Ministry of Health, told The Guardian, “This figure, 40,000, includes only those bodies that have been recovered and buried.”
“New procedures are being developed to include those who are missing or trapped beneath the rubble in the official death toll, but these have not yet been implemented,” he stressed.
Dr. Hams estimates that approximately 10,000 airstrike victims remain trapped beneath collapsed buildings due to a critical shortage of heavy machinery and fuel necessary to clear the steel and concrete debris in search of them.
