At least 50 Palestinians were killed this morning in Israeli bombings in the Gaza Strip, including 25 in an attack on buildings in the city of Rafah, on the border with Egypt, the WAFA news agency reported.
The Israeli military has repeatedly asked Gazans to head south, while several hundred people with foreign passports have fled the enclave in recent days across the Egyptian border.
At least 12 people were killed and thirty were injured in the city of Khan Younis, in the south of the Gaza Strip, and dozens are still missing, while eight people lost their lives in an attack in the Maan area, east of the city. At least one person was killed in an attack in Beit Lahia in the north.
The agency also reported that Israeli forces attacked houses, roads, daycare centers and other infrastructure in the Tal al Haua neighborhood, in the south of Gaza City (north), without a death toll being specified so far.
For its part, the Israeli army declared that, in the last few hours, it had attacked “dozens of rocket launching positions.” “Tonight, using precision weapons, army forces attacked targets of the Hamas terrorist organization,” he said, after confirming on Sunday that he had managed to divide the Gaza Strip in two through the ground offensive.
Israel launched the offensive after the attacks of October 7, which caused around 1,400 deaths and the Islamist movement Hamas took more than 200 hostages.
The authorities of the Gaza Strip, controlled by Hamas, have so far confirmed more than ten thousand deaths, including more than 4,100 children, while more than 160 Palestinians have lost their lives as a result of actions by Israeli forces or settler attacks in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
