At least three Palestinian civilians have been killed and a number yet to be identified, including women and children, have been injured late Saturday afternoon as a result of an Israel Defense Forces (IDF) airstrike on the city. of Gaza, in the Gaza Strip.

The bombing by the Israeli air force has hit a house located on Al Nafaq Street, in the northwest of the aforementioned city, where it has left multiple victims who have been transferred to Al Ahli hospital, the Palestinian news agency Wafa has reported. .

The Gaza Ministry of Health, controlled by the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), has this Friday raised the death toll to more than 45,484 and 108,090 injured due to the offensive unleashed by Israel against the enclave after the attacks on October 7, 2023, including 48 dead and 52 wounded due to “two massacres” carried out by Israeli troops during the last 24 hours.

However, he stressed that “there are still victims under the rubble and in the streets, given that ambulances and Civil Defense teams cannot reach them,” before adding that the balances only include victims who have been transported. to Gaza hospitals, most of them out of service.

The Israeli Army launched its offensive against Gaza after the attacks carried out on October 7, 2023 by Hamas and other Palestinian groups, which left nearly 1,200 dead and about 250 kidnapped. Likewise, around 810 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces and in settler attacks since then in the West Bank and East Jerusalem.
