Seventy-six Palestinians, including women and children, have been martyred since Sunday morning in a series of devastating Israeli airstrikes across the Gaza Strip. The attacks have sparked outrage, with the Hamas movement calling for urgent international action to stop the ongoing Zionist aggression.
Among the victims was an entire family, killed in an airstrike that hit a displacement camp west of Khan Yunis. Press reports indicate that nine Palestinians, including children and women, were martyred in a bombing that targeted a residential apartment in Hamad City, north of Khan Yunis. Six more were killed and 10 injured in an attack on a house in Jouret al-Lut, also in Khan Yunis.

Tragedy struck again in the Khan Yunis refugee camp, where one person was killed and others injured in a late-night airstrike on a house. Two children were also killed in the bombing of a residential apartment in Hamad City. In the Shuja’iyya neighborhood of Gaza City, several people, including children, were reported killed in an Israeli airstrike on a house.

The aggression has continued into the first day of Eid al-Fitr, the Muslim holiday marking the end of the holy month of Ramadan. Hamas has condemned the ongoing bombardment, stating that the “war criminal” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is emboldened by a lack of accountability from the international community.
The resistance group has called on “free peoples” around the world to take immediate action and organize events to pressure governments into compelling Israel to halt its aggression in Gaza and the West Bank. Hamas has also urged the international community to pressure ‘Israel’ to return to the negotiating table and enable prisoner exchanges.

Tragedy has deepened further, with the Palestinian Red Crescent and Civil Defense Teams finding the bodies of 15 more martyrs who had been missing for over a week after being shot by Israeli occupation forces in the Tel al-Sultan neighborhood of Rafah. The Ministry of Health in Gaza has stated that some of the paramedics’ bodies were bound and had bullet wounds to the chest, and were buried in a deep hole to prevent their identification.
