Israeli aerial and artillery bombardment Friday killed 10 Palestinian civilians and injured others in the northern and central war-torn Gaza Strip, according to WAFA correspondents.
They said that paramedics and rescue teams retrieved the bodies of four members of the Nabhan family from the rubble in Bii Na’ja locality, west of Jabalia refugee camp in the northern Strip, following an Israeli airstrike that targeted the locality. Their bodies were transported to the Kamal Adwan Hospital.
They added that Israeli bombardment targeted the Hafsa School, a school-turned-shelter, in Jabalia refugee camp, killing a female and injuring four others. The victim and the casualties were evacuated to the al-Awda Hospital.
Meanwhile, Israeli fighter jets conducted an airstrike against a house in the Sabra neighbourhood, south of Gaza City, killing three civilians and injuring others.
In the meantime, an Israeli bombing targeted an apartment in a residential building belonging to the al-Bayumi family in the Nuseirat ref
ugee camp in the central Strip, killing two children and injuring others.
This brings the total death toll in the Strip since Friday dawn to 34 Palestinian civilians, including 15 in the Jabalia camp, according to medical sources.
Israel has proceeded with its genocidal offensive on the war-torn Strip in complete disregard of the International Court of Justice (ICJ), which ordered Israel in a legally binding decision to halt its military offensive in Rafah, which may violate its obligations under the Genocide Convention.
Israel has been waging a devastating war on Gaza since October 7, killing at least 42,126 Palestinians and injuring over 98,117 others.
Moreover, at least 10,000 people are unaccounted for, presumed dead under the rubble of their homes throughout the Strip.
Palestinian and international organizations say that the majority of those killed and wounded are women and children.
The Israeli aggression has also resulted in the forceful displacement of nearly two million people from all over th
e Gaza Strip, with the vast majority of the displaced forced into the densely crowded southern city of Rafah near the border with Egypt – in what has become Palestine’s largest mass exodus since the 1948 Nakba.
