The government media office in the Gaza Strip stated that "occupation aircraft launched dozens of raids last night on different governorates in the Strip."

The government office explained that some of these raids directly targeted more than 18 houses and residential buildings inhabited by civilians, resulting in dozens of martyrs and hundreds of injuries, adding that 17 were killed in one of the bombings. 

On the other hand, the Ministry of Interior in the Gaza Strip announced that six children and a woman were killed in a bombing that targeted a house in Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip.

It also reported casualties after the occupation aircraft destroyed the Al-Nour Al-Mohammadi Mosque in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in Gaza City.

According to Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Gaza, more than 500 martyrs died during the past 24 hours.

He also confirmed the death toll of five martyrs in the bombing of a house east of Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip, pointing to another bombing that targeted the Japanese neighborhood, west of Khan Yunis.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent in southern occupied Palestine indicated that occupation aircraft launched at least seven raids within 20 minutes on the Beit Hanoun area in the northern Gaza Strip.

The occupation forces also targeted a house in the Kamal Adwan Hospital's vicinity in the Beit Lahia project.

The government media office in the Gaza Strip confirmed that fuel had not entered the Strip since the beginning of the aggression, "which heralds a health catastrophe that would immediately lead to the death of 140 wounded and patients using ventilators," according to the Ministry of Health spokesperson Ashraf Al-Qudra.

It is noteworthy that last night was considered one of the most violent nights in the Gaza Strip since the beginning of the Israeli aggression after the occupation committed more than 25 massacres that led to the death of around 400 martyrs and hundreds of wounded.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced that the death toll had increased to 4,741 martyrs and 15,898 wounded, as a result of the ongoing aggression on Gaza for the 17th day in a row.
