More Palestinians killed as Israeli aggression on Gaza Strip is resumed

Gaza, SANA – As soon as what was referred to as a humanitarian truce ended, the Israeli occupation forces resumed its shelling and attacks on Gaza Strip, killing and injuring a number of Palestinians.

At least eleven Palestinians were killed and others were injured on Sunday, raising the death toll to over 1059, while the number of injured people is over 6000, most of them children, women, and elderly people.

Palestine’s Maan newes agency quoted spokesman of the emergency committee in Gaza Ashraf al-Qudra as saying that two Palestinians were killed in an Israeli air raid on al-Nusayrat camp, and that a 24 year-old man was killed in Khan Younes while another was killed in the town of Absan al-Kabira.

One Palestinian was also killed in al-Zanna, another in Khan Younus, and two more in the eastern border areas of Gaza Strip due to heavy Israeli artillery shelling, while a woman was killed in an Israeli air raid on the west of Gaza city.

Palestine’s Wafa news agency reported that a Palestinian was killed in an Israeli attack with machineguns on a gathering of civilians in Deir al-Balah area on Saturday night, while medical sources reported that child Fadi Baraka succumbed to his wounds in an Egyptian hospital and two others, one of them a 23 year-old woman, also succumbed to their wounds at dawn on Sunday in Gaza hospitals.

During the 12-hour truce that took place on Saturday, medical crews and civil defense teams were busy searching for bodies among the rubble caused by the Israeli shelling and bombardment, particularly in al-Shujaiye neighborhood, uncovering many torn body parts and limbs and burned bodies, adding to the death toll of the massacre committed there by Israel last week which claimed over 100 lives and wounded more than 220 civilians.
