According to the Palestinian Information Center, the occupation aircraft and artillery rained down upon various parts of the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, targeting homes, gatherings, and shelter centers. A house belonging to the Shaheen family near the Al-Awda roundabout in Al-Bureij camp was hit, claiming the lives of two individuals and leaving several injured.

Tragically, the occupation forces committed yet another massacre in Rafah, killing 25 martyrs, including acclaimed journalist Adel Zorob, as well as several children and women. This horrific act of violence was carried out through the bombing of three homes belonging to the Zorob and Attiya families in Rafah.

The Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis revealed that on Monday alone, they received six martyrs, including a woman and two children, as well as 38 wounded individuals, of which eight were women and five were children.

In addition to the relentless air strikes and shelling, the occupation forces continue their incursions into multiple areas of the Gaza Strip, unleashing further havoc and destruction. A wave of intense clashes has engulfed these areas, as reported by the Palestinian Information Center.

Inside these incursion zones, horrific crimes are being committed by the occupation forces. They are raiding, looting, and demolishing homes and facilities, leaving thousands of citizens trapped and deprived of food, water, and healthcare services. Injuries and martyrs are accumulating within homes and on the streets, while medical teams struggle to retrieve them. In a show of complete disregard for human rights, the occupation forces are also arbitrarily arresting citizens, subjecting them to widespread harassment.
