Gaza's civil defense agency reported on Tuesday that an Israeli strike killed at least 21 people at a displacement camp west of the southern city of Rafah on Tuesday, just days after a similar attack that drew global condemnation.

Mohammad al-Mughayyir, a senior official at the agency, confirmed that 21 people had been killed in an "occupation strike targeting the tents of displaced people west of Rafah".

The Gaza health authorities reported that the strike resulted in "dozens of martyrs and wounded" in the area.

Latest updates from the Gaza Ministry of Health reveal that the death toll in the Gaza genocide has risen to 36,096, with another 81,136 reported as injured.

The Ministry further reported that the Israeli occupation committed 5 massacres against families in the Gaza Strip, killing 46 and injuring 110 in the past 24 hours.

Many martyrs remain under the rubble and on the streets as the IOF prevents ambulances and civil defense crews from reaching them. 

It is believed that these numbers are nowhere near the true number of victims of "Israel's" genocidal war in Gaza, as Palestinian healthcare authorities face significant challenges in accurately tallying the number of martyrs wounded and individuals dying beneath the rubble.

In addition, the Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) said that since the start of the Israeli war on Gaza, "Israel" has killed 500 medical staff members.

On a related note, the United Nations Palestinian Refugee Agency (UNRWA) reported that one million Palestinians have had to flee Rafah in the past three weeks.

UNRWA stressed that the displacement from Rafah "happened with nowhere safe to go and amidst bombardments, lack of food and water, piles of waste and unsuitable living conditions."

The agency emphasized that providing assistance and protection is becoming nearly "impossible".
