The aggression shows no mercy, evidenced by the occupation warplanes carrying out several raids on Khan Yunis alongside heavy and continuous artillery shelling. At dawn today, a house belonging to Al-shaaer family in south of Khan Yunis was bombed by the occupation air force. Flare bombs were also fired into the sky of Gaza as various areas within the Strip were relentlessly shelled.

An infant lost his life as yet another house in Rafah, located in the southern part of the Gaza Strip, was bombed by Israeli planes. The dire situation is exacerbated by a lack of essential medical resources, with the director general of Health in Gaza, Dr. Munir al-Barsh, reporting that three children recently lost their lives due to a shortage of oxygen at Kamal Adwan hospital. Furthermore, 12 children remain in intensive care, along with six newborns who were born prematurely.
Since the beginning of October, the toll of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip has risen to an alarming 18,205 martyrs and 49,645 injuries, as confirmed by the Ministry of Health. These horrifying numbers highlight the true extent of the occupation forces’ brutal acts, which have included committing 19 massacres in residential neighborhoods and shelters within the past hours alone. The occupation’s false claims of safe zones only add to the devastating reality faced by the people of Gaza.
