The Israeli occupation forces continued their aggression against the Gaza Strip for the third consecutive day, while the death toll rose to 25, after the death of three citizens, at dawn today, Thursday, in the targeting of a residential apartment in the governorate of Khan Younes, in the south of the Gaza Strip.

Medical sources said that among the 25 martyrs were six children and three women, while the number of injured amounted to 76, including 21 children and 8 women.

The occupation warplanes continue to target citizens' houses and other targets, causing the partial and total destruction of residential units, and the number of houses destroyed has reached 14, after destroying Khan Younes' apartment and targeting a house belonging to the Al-Masry family on Wednesday evening in Beit Lahia, in northern Gaza.

Yesterday, the occupation warplanes targeted and completely destroyed a house in the Al-Qarara area, northeast of Khan Younes, in the southern Gaza Strip, and bombed an industrial facility in the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood, east of Gaza City.

Various types of aircraft, including jet fighters and drones, participate in the murder of citizens and the destruction of their homes. On the other hand, the occupation forces continue to close the crossings and checkpoints in the Gaza Strip, in particular Beit Hanoun, for individuals, and Karem Abu Salem for goods, which warns of a shortage of food, medical supplies and fuel. So far, the occupation forces have been preventing foreign and non-foreign journalists from entering the Gaza Strip, in order to prevent media coverage of its crimes, according to observers.
