On the 257th day of the war, the Israeli occupation continued and intensified its aggression against the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza overnight, while simultaneously attacking other cities, particularly Rafah in southern Gaza.

Israeli bombardment in the Nuseirat camp was focused in its northern area, where Israeli quadcopters renewed fire until the morning. Meanwhile, Israeli warboats and military vehicles targeted the camp's beach.

The occupation's artillery also shelled the northern area of the camp. 

Israeli quadcopters targeted the town of al-Zahraa, in the northern area of central Gaza. 

In the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood, the Israeli occupation forces bombed a house belonging to the Abu Safiyeh family. Civil defense crews retrieved the bodies of at least six Palestinian martyrs, while a number of others were injured.
