The Israeli occupation forces bombarded on Thursday areas in south and central Gaza as its aggression on the Strip entered its 153rd day.

The Israeli strikes coincided with intense confrontations between Palestinian Resistance fighters and the raiding Israeli forces in Gaza, particularly in the southern regions of the Strip.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent confirmed that five Palestinians were martyred in an Israeli airstrike on a house in the al-Jenenah neighborhood east of Rafah in the southern part of the Gaza Strip. The Israeli airstrikes caused a widespread internet outage in the area.

Israeli artillery shelling also bombarded the outskirts of Deir al-Balah in central Gaza.

On Wednesday, our correspondent reported the martyrdom of five Palestinians and the injury of more than 24 others due to Israeli occupation forces targeting Gazans as they awaited aid near the al-Nabulsi roundabout and the Kuwaiti roundabout in Gaza City.

The Israeli occupation forces killed 17 Palestinians in airstrikes that targeted homes in al-Nuseirat and Deir al-Balah refugee camps in central Gaza, while a dozen others are still missing under the rubble.

Additionally, at least 29 people were martyred in an Israeli shelling targeting streets 5, Aabasan, and Bani Suhaila in Khan Younis on Wednesday evening.

Furthermore, five Palestinians, including two children and a woman, were martyred after the Israeli occupation forces targeted the al-Salah Mosque in the center of Jabalia city, north of Gaza.

The Health Ministry in Gaza reported that the Israeli occupation committed 9 massacres in the Strip, killing 86 people and injuring 113 in 24 hours only.

This brings the total number of Palestinians killed in the Gaza Strip since the Israeli aggression on Gaza started on October 7 to 30,717, in addition to 72,156 injuries.

Compounding the devastation, some victims are still trapped under rubble, presumed dead, and bodies are scattered on roads, with the Israeli occupation hindering the arrival of ambulance and civil defense teams.

The Ministry's spokesperson, Ashraf al-Qudra, stated that a 15-year-old Palestinian child in the al-Shifa Hospital has been martyred due to malnutrition and dehydration. He added that a 72-year-old Palestinian man was also martyred in Kamal Adwan Hospital north of Gaza due to the same reason. 

Al-Qudra confirmed that the total number of Palestinians killed by malnutrition and dehydration has risen to 20, adding that this reflects the truth behind the scarce level of aid delivered to hospitals.
