At least five Palestinians, including a woman, were killed and more than a dozen others injured in Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip on Thursday, according to medical sources and witnesses cited by Anadolu Agency.
The attacks were reported in Gaza City’s Tel al-Hawa, Al-Tawam and Amer Project areas, in Al-Sudaniya in the northwest, and in Al-Mawasi, near Rafah, as well as around Bani Suheila and northeast of Khan Younis.
Mohammed Rajab Warsh Agha died of injuries sustained in an Israeli airstrike on a tent sheltering displaced people at the Egyptian Camp in Al-Tawam, a medical source told Anadolu. Earlier, the Palestine Red Crescent Society’s Northern Field Hospital said two people were injured in the strike, one critically.
In a separate attack, two Palestinians were killed and three injured, one critically, when an Israeli drone struck a civilian vehicle in Tel al-Hawa, a medical source said. The casualties were taken to Al-Shifa Hospital.
A Palestinian woman was killed and her husband and two children injured when Israeli artillery hit their tent in the Amer Project area earlier on Thursday. Al-Shifa Hospital identified the woman as 30-year-old Ahlam Mubarak and said her husband was seriously injured.
Separately, Ahmed Khamis Abu Naja died of injuries sustained in an Israeli airstrike on a vehicle in Gaza City about a week ago.
Witnesses said Israeli naval forces fired and launched shells off the Gaza City coast, while artillery targeted Al-Sudaniya. In the south, seven Palestinians were injured when artillery struck a house in Al-Mawasi, northwest of Rafah, medical sources said.
Local sources said the Israeli army also demolished residential buildings and other structures in areas where its forces are deployed northeast of Khan Younis. Witnesses reported that Israeli forces dropped smoke bombs near the Bani Suheila roundabout, east of Khan Younis, setting several tents sheltering displaced Palestinians on fire.
As of Wednesday, violations of the ceasefire agreement had killed 1,467 Palestinians and injured 5,161, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
Palestinian figures say more than 74,000 Palestinians have been killed and over 175,000 injured in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 2023, while about 90% of the enclave’s infrastructure has been destroyed.
