Israeli airstrikes across the Gaza Strip have claimed the lives of at least 28 Palestinians and left nearly 80 others injured on Wednesday and early Thursday, as Israeli violations of the ceasefire deal continue unabated.
The Israeli military targeted the Shujaiya neighborhood in Gaza City, with artillery shelling, resulting in deaths and injuries.
Israeli warplanes also struck the headquarters of Gaza’s Endowments Ministry in the Zeitoun neighborhood of Gaza City, killing six people, including a pregnant woman and a girl.
An Israeli military attach on a group of civilians in Khan Younis, in the southern Gaza Strip, resulted in four deaths and several injuries.
A deadly strike on a residential house in Bani Suheila, east of Khan Younis, killed four people and wounded 17 others.
Gaza’s Civil Dfense said they recovered three bodies and at least 15 wounded from two families.
Eye-witnesses said the attacks targeted areas from which the Israeli army withdrew in Gaza under the ceasefire deal that took effect on Oct. 10.
Israel has killed 280 Palestinians and wounded 672 since Oct. 11, according to a Wednesday statement by Gaza’s Health Ministry.
Since October 2023, the Israeli military’s war on Gaza has resulted in the deaths of nearly 70,000 people, the vast majority of whom are women and children. More than 170,000 people have been injured, while the enclave has been devastated, with homes, schools, hospitals, and critical infrastructure reduced to rubble.
This unprecedented level of destruction has left the population in a state of humanitarian crisis, with widespread displacement, severe shortages of food, water, and medical supplies, and the collapse of essential services.
