GAZA: Two Palestinian civilians were killed and seven others sustained injuries in an Israeli airstrike this afternoon which targeted the Al-Shati refugee camp, west of Gaza City, according to local sources.

Eyewitnesses reported that Israeli warplanes targeted a residential building in the camp upon the heads of its occupants. The strike resulted in the tragic murder of two individuals, while seven others were wounded, suffering from various injuries.

The ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip has so far resulted in over 30,960 reported fatalities, most of whom are children and women, with an additional 72,524 documented injuries, according to the Ministry of Health.

This toll remains provisional as thousands of victims are feared dead under rubble or left in the streets, with Israeli forces hindering access for ambulance and civil defense crews.
