Bloody Night in Gaza Left Homes in Ruins, Entire Families Wiped out from Civil Registry
DayofPal– The Israeli occupation forces have intensified their aerial assault on the city of Khan Younis in southern Gaza, last night, launching a relentless wave of airstrikes that obliterated more than 25 homes across various neighborhoods.
Al-Hadath newspaper correspondent in Gaza reported that 25 homes were targeted across Khan Younis's Abasan Al-Kabira, Al-Shuhada, New Abasan, Bani Suheila, Al-Batn Al-Samin, Al-Tahlia, Ma'an, Jouret Al-Lout, and Al-Manara neighborhood.
The homes belong to the families of Al-Masri, Muammar, Al-Ghalban, Abu Daqqa, Abu Lebda, Abu Salah, Baraka, Abu Ta'ima, Abu Nseira, Abu Taha.
In total, Israeli warplanes carried out more than 20 raids on homes in eastern and southern Khan Younis. Among the targets was Al-Fukhari School, which had been sheltering displaced families. The school suffered severe damage under the continuing bombardment.
One of the attacks struck the iconic Al-Qalaa Tower in the Qizan Abu Rashwan area, flattening it.
In one of the most harrowing incidents, three entire families from the Abu Salah were wiped off the civil registry after their home was hit in the early hours in Abasan Al-Kabira. Most of the victims were women and children. Rescue teams retrieved several bodies from the rubble and transferred them to Nasser Medical Complex.
Israeli military vehicles also invaded Salah Al-Din Street near the European Gaza Hospital, in the south of the Gaza Strip, intensifying the military incursion in eastern Khan Younis.
Meanwhile, the municipality of Jabalia Al-Nazla in northern Gaza reported that residents remain trapped in evacuation zones due to the continuous and heavy shelling. The municipality issued an urgent call for the Red Cross to coordinate immediate humanitarian access to all areas of Jabalia.
Elsewhere, Israeli occupation forces opened heavy fire north of the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza.
In a separate attack, Al-Awda Hospital in Tel Al-Zaatar reported that an airstrike struck near its perimeter in northern Gaza, raising concerns over the safety of medical facilities.
Since dawn on Tuesday, medical sources confirmed at least 98 people have been killed in Israeli strikes across the Gaza Strip. Later, emergency services recovered 11 more bodies and dozens of injured following an air raid on the Nabhan family home on Al-Nazha Street in Jabalia town, northern Gaza.
