Three killed in Israeli attacks in Gaza City, as northern Gaza bombardment intensifies
Wafa reported that Israeli fighter jets struck a group of civilians on al-Jaru Street, killing three, including two brothers.
Meanwhile, Al Jazeera is reporting that Israeli bombardment of northern Gaza's border towns and villages, including Beit Hanoun, Beit Lahia, Jabalia al-Balad, and the Jabalia refugee camp, is intensifying.
Journalist Tareq Abu Azzoum said that "massive bombardment" by the Israeli army has predominantly targeted "civilian infrastructure, turning [these areas] into lifeless wastelands".
In Gaza City, he said, "the atmosphere is one of sheer exhaustion mixed with constant fear".
"Residents told us they cannot sleep, as Israeli strikes shake the ground day and night. They live under relentless bombardment, never knowing when or where the next strike will hit", he said.
