The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced on Friday the martyrdom of elderly Ismail Salman Ayyad, from the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood, south of Gaza City, who succumbed to the wounds that he sustained in an airstrike during the latest Israeli occupation aggression against the Gaza Strip.
On May 9, the Israeli occupation launched an aggression against Gaza, as occupation warplanes targeted houses and apartments, north, center, and south of the Strip, leaving 37 martyrs, including six Palestinian Resistance leaders, and around 190 injuries.
In response to the aggression, the Joint Operations Room of the Palestinian Resistance factions launched a response operation codenamed Avenging the Free.
Egypt mediated a ceasefire between the Palestinian Resistance and the Israeli occupation, as a result of which the five-day aggression against the Gaza Strip ended with an Israeli pledge to end assassinations and the targeting of civilian homes.
