Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Gaza reported that 40 Palestinians were killed as a result of ongoing Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip since dawn Tuesday, after the strikes targeted various areas, including residential neighborhoods and locations where displaced persons and civilians were gathered.
25 Palestinians were martyred and more than 150 were injured when the occupation forces struck a crowd waiting for humanitarian aid near the Netzarim junction in the central Gaza Strip. The attack caused widespread devastation among civilians awaiting relief.
Medical sources at Al-Awda Hospital in al-Nuseirat confirmed that the facility received 19 martyrs and 146 injured individuals following shelling that targeted hundreds of citizens on Salah al-Din Street, south of Wadi Gaza.
The sources indicated that at least 62 of the injured were in critical condition, straining the already overwhelmed medical infrastructure.
Rescue and civil defense crews also recovered five bodies from under the rubble of a house destroyed in the Al-Sabra neighborhood, south of Gaza City.
IOF deliberately kill, target Gaza displaced people
Israeli occupation forces continued their massacres against Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip on Monday, resulting in dozens of deaths and injuries.
Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that 10 people were martyred and a large number of injured individuals were transported to al-Shifa Hospital after Israeli forces opened fire on a crowd of civilians waiting for food aid in the al-Waha area, northwest of Gaza City.
In a separate attack, our correspondent confirmed that three Palestinians were killed and others wounded when Israeli aircraft targeted a group of civilians near the al-Hashimiya School in the al-Tuffah neighborhood, northeast of the city.
Israeli warplanes also launched intense airstrikes on Jabalia town in the northern part of the Strip, while artillery shelling struck a residential tower in Hamad City, northwest of Khan Younis.
Khan Younis also witnessed a massive explosion after occupation forces demolished residential buildings in the eastern part of the city. Meanwhile, in the al-Mawasi area southwest of Khan Younis, Israeli warplanes targeted tents sheltering displaced civilians, killing three people and injuring several others.
The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced the martyrdom of 39 Palestinians and 317 wounded due to airstrikes across the enclave.
