Israeli occupation forces committed a number of massacres in the Gaza Strip, launched dozens of strikes, and shelled several areas in the besieged territory on the 328th day of the war on Gaza. 

Palestinian civilians are also suffering from continuous Israeli-issued orders of evacuation from multiple neighborhoods in the Gaza Strip, which has become an issue of international concern.

In the southern Gaza Strip, Israeli helicopters and artillery units targeted civilians in the al-Zanah area in eastern Khan Younis and the al-Mahatta neighborhood in northern Khan Younis. Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that two people were martyred as a result of the Israeli aggression at the Abu Hamid roundabout in the same city. 

Another five were killed in an airstrike on a tent housing forcibly displaced Palestinians in the Wadi Saber area in southern Abasan al-Kabira, to the east of the city of Khan Younis. 

Gaza's Civil Defense Directorate reported that the bodies of three martyrs were recovered from underneath the rubble, left behind by an Israeli strike on a home in the center of the city. 

In Rafah, the southernmost city of the Gaza Strip, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that the Israeli occupation's military destroyed the minarets of the Tayba Mosque in the Saudi neighborhood, marking yet another violation of international law. 

Another Israeli strike killed four people in eastern Rafah after Israeli occupation forces directly fired at members of Gaza's civil authorities. 

In the western section of the city, Israeli occupation forces demolished several residential buildings in the area.

Moving northwards, in the central Gaza Strip, Israeli occupation forces in the western area of the Nuseirat refugee camp saw eight martyrs and 20 injured Palestinians admitted to the al-Awda Hospital on Thursday. 

Our correspondent also reported that five people were martyred as a result of an Israeli attack on a group of citizens west of the Al-Baraka roundabout, in Deir al-Balah, in the central Gaza Strip. 

Meanwhile, the Civil Defense Directorate reported that several people were injured in an Israeli shelling on the Abu Bakr al-Siddiq Mosque in the al-Maghazi refugee camp, adding that others were injured in an Israeli shelling that targeted a house belonging to the "Abu Suwayreh" family in the al-Sawarha area west of the Nuseirat camp.

In Gaza City, our correspondent reported that a child was martyred in an Israeli airstrike on his family's home in al-Zaytoun neighborhood. He added that two martyrs and several injuries were reported following an Israeli airstrike on a group of citizens on al-Birham Street, in the same neighborhood. 

The Civil Defense Directorate reported that eight were martyred due to an Israeli strike on a house belonging to the "Abdo" family near the al-Amal Hotel, west of the city.

"For the sixth day, Israeli occupation forces continue to advance around the Kuwaiti roundabout area and behind the halls area south of Street 8, with extensive bombing and shelling of civilian homes," the directorate explained. 

It announced that occupation forces have continued to prevent the entry of gas canisters, used by civilians for utilities, since the beginning of the war until now, forcing civilians to resort to using alternatives such as nylon, cardboard, and cloth for cooking which pose a risk to lives and property.

In the northern governorate, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that an Israeli airstrike targeted an apartment on Souq Street in Beit Lahia.

Earlier today, the Ministry of Health in Gaza announced that the death toll in Gaza has risen to 40,602 Palestinians, with 93,855 injured since the start of the Israeli aggression on the Strip on October 7.
