Over 50 Palestinians martyred as Israeli forces intensify attacks on Gaza

Gaza (Web Desk): Israeli forces have intensified their attacks on Gaza, killing 51 more Palestinians.

According to Qatar’s Al Jazeera, Israeli troops targeted innocent Palestinians in Gaza City and surrounding areas. In one strike on a temporary camp, four people were killed and several others injured.

The Israeli military carried out heavy shelling and remote-controlled attacks in the northwestern part of the city, while residential buildings were hit in the northeastern area.

The Israeli air force also targeted a school in western Gaza City, which was sheltering displaced people; two children were killed in that attack.

According to Palestine’s official news agency WAFA, six people were killed in a drone strike in the Tuffah neighborhood of Gaza City. In another incident, Israeli forces raided the town of Yaabad and injured a 29-year-old Palestinian man, who was then taken to a nearby hospital by the Palestinian Red Crescent Society.

In a separate airstrike on a home in the Shati refugee camp in western Gaza, the brother of Al-Shifa Medical Complex director Mohammad Abu Salmiya and his wife were killed.

Abu Salmiya expressed deep grief and shock upon seeing their bodies, stating that anything is possible now amid ongoing Israeli aggression.

Since October 2023, over 65,000 Palestinians have been killed and more than 166,000 injured in Israeli attacks, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.

Approximately 2,518 people were killed and 18,449 injured while seeking aid. Hunger has claimed the lives of 164 people in Gaza, including 32 children.

Palestinian civil defense reports that since August, nearly half of Gaza City’s population—about 4.5 million people—have fled the city due to escalating Israeli military operations.
