In the south, three Palestinians were martyred in two separate drone strikes on the Ma'an area, east of Khan Younis.

The body of three-month-old Mohammad Hisham Shehab was recovered from beneath the rubble of his family's home in the al-Zannah area, also east of Khan Younis. The house had been bombed days earlier, killing both his parents and injuring his two siblings.

These developments come in light of increased Israeli aggression across the Gaza Strip.

On Wednesday, the United Nations' human rights chief told AFP that "Israel's" plan to escalate its military offensive in the Gaza Strip marks a critical and perilous moment for the civilian population trapped in the conflict zone.

"What we see is only more destruction, more hatred, more dehumanisation," UNHCR chief Volker Turk said, noting that "It's a very dangerous moment for civilians."

He stressed the urgent need to end the war and demanded that "Israel's" blockade on Gaza "be lifted immediately."

"With what is happening at the moment, in this current geopolitical moment, it is all the more important to come back to the principles, the values, to the norms, to the institutions, because they have served humanity well for 80 years," Turk said.

"If we lose them, we lose a lot of what has been actually possible by way of progress, human progress, development, and also when it comes to humanitarian action and human rights," he added.
