Israeli airstrikes in Gaza kill 3 Palestinians, injure 11
GAZA CITY, Palestine
Israeli airstrikes in Gaza killed three Palestinians and injured 11 others on Sunday.
Israeli warplanes targeted a tent and a center housing displaced persons as well as a home.
Gaza’s civil defense agency said on Telegram that its teams “recovered three martyrs, including a girl and a woman, due to an Israeli strike on a house in the Al-Shati refugee camp in Gaza City.”
“Our teams are searching for other missing people among the rubble of the destroyed house,” it added.
In two other attacks, Al-Awda Hospital said that 11 Palestinians were injured in a tent in Nuseirat in the central Gaza Strip and at a center housing displaced people in the Jabalia refugee camp.
Since the onset of Israel’s war on Gaza, Palestinians have been suffering from displacement as the Israeli military orders residents of areas and neighborhoods to evacuate in preparation for bombardments and incursions.
Israel has continued its brutal offensive on the Gaza Strip following an attack by the Palestinian group Hamas last Oct. 7, despite a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire.
Nearly 41,900 people have since been killed, mostly women and children, and over 97,100 others injured, according to local health authorities.
The Israeli onslaught has displaced almost the entire population of the territory amid an ongoing blockade that has led to severe shortages of food, clean water and medicine.
Israel faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its actions in Gaza.
