The Israeli enemy forces continue their war of genocide against the Gaza Strip for the 650th consecutive day, using air and artillery bombardment, killing the starving and displaced, with American political and military support, international silence, and unprecedented abandonment by the international community and Arab states.

In this context, Palestinian sources reported that “18 citizens were killed and dozens were injured in Israeli airstrikes on various areas of the Gaza Strip since dawn on Thursday.” They continued, “Citizen Hassan Ahmed Rizq Al-Shaer succumbed to his wounds in a previous Israeli bombing of the Al-Mawasi area in Khan Yunis.” They added, “Eight citizens were also killed and others were injured in a massacre committed by the occupation forces against aid workers in the Al-Tawam area, north of the Gaza Strip.” They also stated, “Two citizens were killed and others were injured when occupation aircraft bombed a group of citizens near the Bahloul petrol station on Al-Nasr Street, west of Gaza City.”

The sources noted that “five citizens were killed as a result of the occupation’s bombing of the Abu Helou School in the Al-Bureij refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip at dawn on Thursday.” They continued, “Occupation aircraft also launched several raids east of Gaza City at dawn on Thursday, and blew up a number of civilian homes in the area.” They added, “Occupation forces blew up more homes in the center of Khan Yunis.” They noted that “three citizens from the Abu Heen family were killed and others were injured when the occupation bombed an apartment near the Imam Al-Shafi’i School in the Al-Zeitoun neighborhood, southeast of Gaza City, after midnight. The occupation army also carried out bombing operations in Jabalia al-Balad, north of the Gaza Strip.”
The Israeli enemy forces, with full American support, are waging a war of genocide against the Gaza Strip, which has so far left—according to the Ministry of Health—more than 58,573 martyrs, 139,607 wounded, and more than 11,000 missing. Famine has claimed the lives of dozens, while more than two million Palestinians are living in conditions of forced displacement amid widespread destruction.
Among the martyrs were 7,750, and among the wounded were 27,566, targeted after the occupation reneged on the ceasefire agreement on March 18, 2025.

The number of martyrs since the occupation transformed limited distribution points into killing traps on May 27 has reached approximately 851, with more than 5,634 wounded and 39 missing. This has been achieved through the use of the so-called “Gaza Humanitarian Foundation”—which has an Israeli-American character and is internationally rejected—as a tool to impose the equation of submission and killing under the guise of “humanitarian work.”
The enemy forces killed (1,582) martyrs from medical personnel, (115) martyrs from the civil defense, (220) martyrs from the security forces, and (754) martyrs from the police and aid workers. The enemy forces committed more than 15,000 massacres, targeting more than 14,000 families, during which approximately 2,500 families were wiped out from the civil registry.
