Several Palestinians were martyred and injured last night as a result of intense airstrikes by the Israeli occupation air force on areas surrounding Gaza City in the northern part of the Gaza Strip.

Medical sources reported that dozens of Palestinians were martyred and injured in the al-Daraj and al-Tuffah neighbourhoods, as well as the old town, due to the occupation's bombing of these areas.

The occupation aircraft launched a series of violent airstrikes on the mentioned areas, with their echoes heard in the northern and central parts of the Gaza Strip.

Day 275 of Israeli aggression on Gaza: 38,153 killed, 87,828 injured

On day 275 of the Israeli genocide in Gaza, the number of Palestinians killed by the Israeli occupation in Gaza on Sunday reached 38,153, in addition to 87,828 injuries, according to the daily report published by the Health Ministry in Gaza.

"Israel" committed three massacres in 24 hours, killing 55 Palestinians and injuring 123 others.

While some were transported to partially functioning hospitals, many victims remain trapped beneath the rubble with rescue crews unable to reach them.

Others remain either injured or lie there as lifeless bodies dispersed on the streets as rescue crews are also prohibited from attending to them or transporting them.

A renewed series of sporadic attacks were carried out by the Israeli occupation on the 275th day of its ongoing aggression on the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported.

Five journalists were among those killed in the occupation's recent attacks in Gaza City and the Nuseirat camp within 12 hours on Saturday.
