The Israeli occupation launched a new wave of deadly airstrikes across the Gaza Strip on Saturday, killing several Palestinian civilians, including children, and wounding others, most of whom were seeking humanitarian aid or attempting to secure basic necessities.

According to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent in Gaza, at least five Palestinians were martyred and others injured after Israeli warplanes bombed a group of civilians near al-Mahatta Mosque in the al-Tuffah neighborhood, northeast of Gaza City.

In a separate attack, three children were killed while collecting firewood near the vegetable market in the al-Shujaiya district, east of Gaza City. The children were directly targeted by Israeli warplanes, according to eyewitnesses on the ground.

The bombing campaign extended to southern Gaza as well. In Khan Younis, five Palestinians were killed when Israeli forces struck a tent sheltering displaced families in the al-Mawasi area. The victims were among thousands who had fled their homes due to the ongoing assault and were living without adequate protection or humanitarian support.

In central Gaza, the al-Awda Hospital reported that eight wounded Palestinians were brought in following an Israeli strike on a group of people waiting for aid along Salah al-Din Road, south of Wadi Gaza.

These attacks come amid the Israeli regime’s relentless assault on the Gaza Strip, which continues to deepen the humanitarian crisis. Essential supplies remain critically scarce, while tens of thousands of displaced residents are crammed into overcrowded shelters or open areas with no protection or access to aid.

Renewed massacres

Israeli occupation forces are committing new massacres in the Gaza Strip, targeting civilian homes, locations, and aid distribution centers as part of their ongoing aggression, which has persisted for over a year and a half.

On Friday, the Israeli occupation carried out a new series of massacres against Palestinian civilians in Gaza, killing at least 40 and injuring over 120, including women and children, in strikes targeting multiple areas across the Strip.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that 12 Palestinians were killed in an Israeli airstrike targeting a home in Deir al-Balah in central Gaza, while three others were killed and several wounded in a drone attack on civilians near the Sheikh Radwan cemetery west of Gaza City.

Two Palestinians were killed and others wounded when a strike hit the Al-Adini family home east of Deir al-Balah, while another attack on a house in the Al-Tuffah neighborhood northeast of Gaza left three dead.
