Israeli occupation forces have carried out intense artillery shelling and airstrikes on the Gaza Strip since dawn on Tuesday, killing at least 16 Palestinians and wounding dozens more, including children and displaced people.

Northern Gaza under fire

Artillery targeted the town of Jabalia in the northern Gaza Strip, while heavy shelling struck the al-Sabra neighborhood southwest of Gaza City. The bombardment, combined with fire from military vehicles and drones, left multiple martyrs and wounded, many of them children.

Airstrikes also pounded areas stretching from the al-Zaytoun neighborhood and east of Tal al-Hawa to the al-Khor roundabout.
