54 Palestinians killed across the Gaza Strip and violent Israeli bombing on Rafah
The Ministry of Health in Gaza reported that the Israeli occupation army committed three massacres today, Thursday, resulting in 54 dead and 95 wounded.
It added that the total number of martyrs as a result of the Israeli aggression since the start of the war on Gaza reached 38,848 dead, while the total number of injured reached 89,459.
This comes as the Israeli bombing continues on several residential neighborhoods in different areas of the Gaza Strip.
The Israeli army also confirmed that 32 soldiers were injured during the past 24 hours in the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and the northern front with Lebanon.
Al Jazeera's correspondent reported that the bodies of 4 dead and a number of those injured were recovered in a bombing carried out by a drone on a gathering of citizens on Al-Jalaa Street, north of Gaza City.
Three Palestinians were also killed and others were injured in an Israeli bombing that targeted a car in the Al-Baraka area in Deir Al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip.
The city of Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip, especially its western areas, witnessed the heaviest bombing in days, as Israeli aircraft and artillery specifically targeted the Sultan and Al-Saudi neighborhoods.
Al Jazeera's correspondent also reported that the bodies of 3dead and wounded arrived at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital.
It is noteworthy that the Israeli occupation army has been waging a devastating war on Gaza since October 7, which left more than 128,000 Palestinian dead and wounded, most of them children and women, and more than 10,000 missing amid massive destruction and deadly famine.
Tel Aviv continues this war, ignoring the UN Security Council resolutions to stop it immediately, and the orders of the International Court of Justice to take measures to prevent acts of genocide and to improve the catastrophic humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip.
