Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported early Tuesday that 14 Palestinians were killed and others were injured as a result of Israeli airstrikes on residential houses and apartments in the city of Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip.
The Israeli occupation forces targeted two houses on al-Moudarriseen Street, as well as a residential apartment in the al-Mouhandiseen Towers in the al-Zohour neighborhood in northern Rafah.
Our correspondent also confirmed that two aid workers were killed in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a warehouse for aid in Jabalia refugee camp, north of Gaza.
In the past hours, the Israeli occupation forces committed another massacre that resulted in several martyrs and wounded after shelling a house west of the al-Nusseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip, belonging to the al-Hajj family.
On Monday, the Ministry of Health in Gaza confirmed that the number of Palestinians killed in the ongoing Israeli aggression on the besieged Strip has risen to more than 31, 726, most of which are children and women, in addition to over 73, 792 injuries, pointing out that the figures exclude thousands of victims who remain under the rubble.
The latest Israeli strike on the warehouse in Jabalia adds to the suffering of the people in Gaza, who are in desperate need of aid as "Israel" continues to deliberately block the delivery of aid into the besieged Gaza Strip.
Earlier, the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Antonio Guterres, urgently called for the immediate entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza.
In a convened session for the UN Security Council at the New York headquarters, Guterres called on "Israel" to "guarantee the complete and unconditioned arrival of humanitarian goods in all areas of the Gaza Strip."
He highlighted that more than half of the Palestinians in the Strip, almost 1.1 million people, have run out of their humanitarian aid rations, and are currently facing severe hunger.
