More atrocities committed by the Israeli occupation forces were exposed following their withdrawal from areas in Tell al-Hawa and al-Sina'a Street, west of Gaza City, where they had been present for approximately seven days.
This was revealed amid "Israel's" ongoing aggression across all parts of the Strip for the 280th consecutive day.
Charred bodies and burned houses
Gaza's Civil Defense has confirmed that the situation in the Tell al-Hawa and al-Sina’a area is now extremely dire and tragic following the withdrawal of the Israeli occupation forces to Street 8, as rescue crews are actively engaged in retrieving the bodies of martyrs from the area.
Civil Defense crews anticipated that all residents who were in Tell al-Hawa and al-Sina'a were martyred following the Israeli raid. They reported discovering the bodies of martyrs scattered and charred in the streets and inside destroyed houses that were burned down in the area.
The crews found about 60 martyrs in the al-Sina'a and Tell al-Hawa areas after the occupation withdrew, saying that the occupation killed Palestinians attempting to get food supplies.
While receiving continuous distress calls, the Civil Defense reported that it had recovered three martyrs from the al-Zaidiya family in the industrial square west of Gaza City.
They also noted that several occupation vehicles were stationed in the Abu Mazen roundabout area in Tell al-Hawa, advising citizens to stay away from the area. They further stressed that the Israeli occupation forces are firing dozens of shells in the vicinity of the municipality park and the Qattan Center, west of Gaza City.
Intense bombing on Gaza City
Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that the Israeli bombing targeted the al-Rimal neighborhood and the northern suburbs of Gaza City, in addition to bombing a house near the electricity company on al-Thalathini Street in the al-Sabra neighborhood, south of the city.
Our correspondent highlighted that there are numerous missing persons in al-Shujaiya whom the Civil Defense is currently unable to search for.
In the southern Gaza Strip, eight martyrs and dozens of wounded were reported when the Israeli occupation targeted the tents of displaced Palestinians in Khan Younis. In the northern Gaza Strip, the bombing targeted several areas in Beit Lahia, Beit Hanoun, and eastern Jabalia.
The death toll from the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip has risen to more than 38,295 thousand martyrs and 88,241 wounded since October 7, 2023.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society announced in a statement that its crews are "unable to respond to dozens of distress calls in Gaza due to the severity and intensity of the Israeli bombardment."
The statement added, "Field reports from the Gaza Strip indicate that the conditions of the population are extremely tragic, in light of the occupation's continued targeting of residential areas and the displacement of citizens from their places of residence and shelters."
