Scores of Palestinians martyred in Gaza Strip as Israeli occupation goes ahead with its genocidal war for the 183rd day

Scores of Palestinian civilians were killed and others were injured early Saturday in Israeli airstrikes and artillery shelling targeting residential neighborhoods in various areas of Gaza Strip.

WAFA News Agency reported that the Israeli forces targeted civilian homes in the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood southeast of Gaza City, the Al-Sabra neighborhood in its center, and the neighborhoods of Tel Al-Hawa and Sheikh Ajleen southwest of the city.

This resulted in the martyrdom of three civilians and the injury of around 10 others, who were transferred to the hospital in the city.

Additionally, Israeli artillery shelled homes in the areas of Al-Maghraqa, Al-Zahra, and the northern outskirts of the Nusseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, causing injuries among civilians, who were subsequently transported to the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir Al-Balah, central Gaza.

Furthermore, Israeli artillery targeted several areas in the town of Beit Hanoun in the northern Gaza Strip.

Simultaneously, the occupation forces fired several shells towards the southwestern neighborhoods of Khan Younis city, south of the Strip, coinciding with airstrikes on the central and western parts of the city.

The ongoing Israeli occupation aggression against the Gaza Strip since October 7th has so far resulted in the martyrdom of 33,091 civilians, mostly children and women, and the injury of over 75,750 others.
