At least 26 Palestinian civilians killed in Israeli airstrikes on different areas in Gaza

GAZA, Oct. 15 (YPA) – At least 26 Palestinian civilians were killed and dozens were injured since midnight last night, due to the Israeli occupation’s bombing of several areas in the Gaza Strip.

In Khan Yunis, 10 citizens were killed and others were injured, and others were lost under the rubble, after the occupation bombed a house belonging to the Abu Ta’ima family in the town of Bani Suhaila, east of the city.

Also, seven citizens, including children and women, were killed and several others were injured, after an occupation raid targeted a house in the Al-Fakhari neighborhood in Khan Yunis.

In Al-Nuseirat camp, six citizens were killed and 8 others were injured after the occupation bombed a house northeast of the camp in the central Gaza Strip, and two other citizens were killed and several others were injured after bombing a house northwest of Al-Nuseirat camp.

As for Gaza City, two citizens were killed and more than 10 citizens were lost under the rubble in raids carried out by the occupation’s air force that targeted a residential area in Al-Sina’a Street, southwest of Gaza City.

Three citizens were also killed and others were injured when the occupation forces bombed a house belonging to the Al-Dahdouh family in the vicinity of Salah al-Din Mosque in the Al-Zeitoun neighborhood, southeast of Gaza City.

In Jabalia camp, north of the Gaza Strip, four citizens were killed and others were injured when the occupation forces bombed a house belonging to the Al-Sayed family in the Al-Faluja area. A citizen was also killed when the occupation forces bombed the vicinity of the Al-Numan Mosque in the middle of the Al-Nazla neighborhood.

Local sources reported that food has begun to run out in areas north of the Gaza Strip, in light of the ongoing siege imposed on them for the 11th consecutive day, in addition to a shortage of water and extreme difficulty in communications.

The residents of the northern Gaza Strip are suffering from a bitter reality between hunger, thirst and the absence of health services under the pressure of bombing and destruction since the start of the latest military operation on the evening of October 5.

The occupation forces are imposing a strict siege on that area, concentrated in Beit Hanoun, Beit Lahia and Jabalia camp, in an attempt to empty it of residents, preventing the entry of relief aid and trucks of drinking water for the residents.

As the military operation enters its ninth day, the residents are calling on all international institutions to take action to save their lives before it is too late, and to deter Israel from committing new crimes.

On Wednesday, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) announced that the occupation army is besieging at least 400,000 Palestinians in the northern Gaza Strip.

This is the third ground operation carried out by the occupation army in Jabalia camp since the beginning of the genocidal war on the Gaza Strip on October 7, 2023.
