In the early hours of Sunday, at least 7 Palestinians lost their lives while several others, including children and women, sustained injuries following a targeted Israeli airstrike on a residential property within the Al-Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza. The Israeli military conducted multiple air raids, striking homes in the Al-Nusairat camp, resulting in numerous casualties among Palestinian civilians. Reports from Palestinian sources confirmed that the airstrikes specifically targeted residences belonging to the Assar and Zaqout families in the camp. Tragically, the strikes led to the deaths of at least 13 Palestinians, including children and women, while leaving dozens more wounded. Many of the injured were rushed to Al-Awda Hospital, with concerns raised about individuals still trapped under the debris. Beyond these strikes, Israeli forces also targeted a residential building in the Safatawi area and Jalaa Street in the city's north, causing additional casualties. This escalation saw dozens injure d, requiring immediate medical attention at Al-Muadhami Hospital. The Israeli military's series of airstrikes extended to various neighborhoods in Gaza City, including Al-Tuffah, Al-Daraj, Al-Shujaiya, and Al-Sabra. Furthermore, artillery fire from the occupation forces struck numerous shells east of Rafah, in the southern Strip. Meanwhile, violent clashes erupted in the southern regions of Deir Al-Balah following the advancement of Israeli army vehicles. Reports suggested movements of military vehicles along Salah Al-Din Street, potentially hindering travel between central regions and the cities of Khan Yunis and Rafah. Confirming the intensity of the situation, sources reported ongoing clashes, the use of flares, anti-tank shells, and continued Israeli airstrikes, leading to significant challenges in movement due to the Israeli incursion. This unfortunate escalation adds to the toll of a war that commenced on October 7th. Shockingly, the ongoing Israeli aggression has claimed the lives of more than 15,0 00 Palestinians, including over 6,150 children and 4,000 women, with more than 37,000 sustaining injuries, which is a harrowing and unofficial count that continues to rise. Source: Jordan News Agency The Islamic Resistance Movement "Hamas" today condemned Britain's intention to have its army participate in the war launched by Israel against the Gaza Strip. The movement said in a statement reported by 'Russia': 'The movement believes that Britain's disclosure of its army carrying out intelligence flights over the Gaza Strip makes it a partner with the Zionist occupation in its crimes, and responsible for the massacres to which our Palestinian people are subjected.' The statement added: 'Britain should have corrected its historical position that was offensive to our people, and atone for the Balfour Declaration, which is the sin of the century, instead of committing another sin and reminding the world of its shameful colonial past, and thus the British government would place itself at enmity with our people and all the free people of the world who reject Zionist aggression on Gaza.' Hamas called on Britain to 'rescind its direct participation and political and financial support for the war of genocide a gainst Gaza, and to stop its dependence on the United States of America and its contribution to igniting wars, instead of contributing to peace and stability in the region.' Earlier, the British Ministry of Defense announced that "the British Army will conduct reconnaissance flights over the Gaza Strip to help locate hostages held by Hamas." The Ministry confirmed in a statement that "the surveillance aircraft will be unarmed, and will not have any combat role, and its mission will only be to determine the location of the hostages," noting that "information related to rescuing the hostages will only be passed to the concerned authorities responsible for rescuing the hostages."
