Another bombing targeted a car in the Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza, killing three people whose bodies were taken to Al Aqsa Hospital in Deir al Balah. The nearby Nuseirat camp was targeted by Israeli airstrikes that left two women dead.

In recent weeks, Israeli occupation forces have concentrated their offensive in Shujaiya, where “explosions, artillery attacks, and shots from military vehicles, quadcopter drones, and Apache helicopters have been reported,” according to the WAFA agency.

Palestinian media also reported an airstrike against a group of people “trying to return” to that neighborhood. This Zionist operation left four Palestinians dead and 17 others injured.

“Paramedics pulled seven dead and seven injured from the rubble after occupation aircraft attacked the Maqat family’s home,” a residence north of the Gaza capital, according to WAFA.

Various neighborhoods in the Gaza capital were bombed throughout the night, including the Zarqa area, Zeitun neighborhood, and Tuffah, where a plane bombed a printing press.

In the last 24 hours, the Israeli army killed 28 Palestinians in Gaza and injured 125 people. Since the Israeli offensive began in October 2023, Zionist military forces have killed 37,953 Palestinians and injured 87,266 people. These figures include about 10,000 bodies that remain under the rubble, with ambulances or rescue teams yet to reach them.
