Palestinian medical sources have confirmed the death of five martyrs at dawn following an Israeli airstrike targeting a house in the al-Jurn area of Jabalia, north of the Gaza Strip. This incident marks the 292nd day of the ongoing aggression against the Strip.
Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Gaza reported that the Israeli assault persists in Khan Younis, particularly in its eastern parts. The occupation forces have demolished residential blocks in the Bani Suhaila area with snipers positioned in the region.
Throughout the night, Israeli artillery, aircraft, and planes conducted attacks on several sites, including Khan Younis, northern Rafah, and the al-Bureij camp in the central Gaza Strip.
Israeli airstrikes also targeted the northern Nuseirat camp and the western part of Deir al-Balah city in the central Gaza Strip during the night. Additionally, Israeli tanks directed heavy fire at the coastal area of al-Mawasi, west of Rafah City.
Palestinian Resistance confronts renewed Israeli invasion
At dawn Wednesday, Palestinian Resistance fighters continue to defend their towns against the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip following more than 290 days of aggression.
Hamas' al-Qassam Brigades said that its fighters fired a locally-produced tandem rocket-propelled al-Yassin grenade (RPG) at an Israeli military-grade D9 bulldozer in eastern Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip. Another group of fighters shelled occupation forces in Juhr al-Dik just north of the central Gaza Strip, using mortar shells.
The Palestinian Islamic Jihad's (PIJ) al-Quds Brigades conducted a joint mortar attack with the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine's (DFLP) National Resistance Brigades. The two Resistance factions fired large-caliber mortar shells at Israeli occupation forces in the strategic Netzarim Axis. Similarly, al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades also extensively shelled occupation forces in the same Axis on Tuesday.
On Tuesday, the Ministry of Health in Gaza announced in its daily report that the number of Palestinians killed in the Strip due to the Israeli genocidal war has now reached 39,090, in addition to 90,147 injured.
Additionally, it confirmed that Israeli occupation forces committed eight massacres in the past 24 hours, killing 84 and injuring 329 others.
The ministry stressed that thousands of victims are still under the rubble, lining the streets as the occupation forces continue to prohibit ambulances and civil defense crews from reaching them.
