Five citizens were killed today, Friday, in continuous bombing by the Israeli occupation of the southern and central Gaza Strip.

Local sources reported that the occupation warboats fired heavy machine guns off the coast of the Khan Yunis Sea in the southern Gaza Strip, leading to the death of two fishermen.

It added that the occupation forces, penetrating into the eastern areas of the city of Rafah, opened fire on citizens in the town of Al-Shouka, east of Rafah, which led to the death of two citizens and the injury of others, coinciding with the occupation military helicopters firing machine guns at the western areas of the city.

In the middle of the Gaza Strip, occupation warplanes bombed a house in Deir al-Balah, killing a citizen and wounding others.

The occupation artillery also bombed Al-Sika Street, east of the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood, southeast of Gaza City, simultaneously with the occupation artillery targeting the vicinity of the school complex on Al-Mansoura Street in the middle of the Al-Shujaiya neighborhood, east.

Medical sources reported that at least 20 citizens were killed in occupation raids on various areas of the Gaza Strip since dawn today.

The Israeli occupation forces have continued their aggression against the Gaza Strip, by land, sea and air, since October 7, 2023, resulting in the death of more than 37,232 citizens and the injury of 85,037 others, an infinite toll, as thousands of victims are still under the rubble.
