74 Palestinians Killed in Israeli Attacks on Gaza, Including Displaced and Starving Civilians

Watan-At least 74 Palestinians, including displaced and starving civilians, were killed in Israeli airstrikes on multiple areas across the Gaza Strip since early Monday, as part of what local sources describe as an ongoing campaign of systematic genocide.

Israeli forces intensified aerial and artillery bombardments on the southern and eastern regions of Gaza City—particularly the Zaytoun, Shuja’iyya, and Tuffah neighborhoods.

Warplanes also struck four schools sheltering displaced persons, including three adjacent schools in Zaytoun and a fourth in Tuffah, after prior evacuation warnings, according to local sources in Gaza City.

Beach Massacre

In one of the deadliest attacks, at least 21 Palestinians, including women, children, and a journalist, were killed and dozens injured in an Israeli airstrike on Al-Baqa seaside café and resort on the Gaza coast, according to medical sources and eyewitnesses.

Witnesses said that an Israeli warplane launched at least one missile, destroying the resort entirely.“The bodies arrived at Al-Shifa Hospital in pieces due to the intense strike. Hospital halls are overflowing with wounded, including critical cases,” said a medical source, predicting the death toll could rise further.

Widespread Civilian Targeting

• At the Baptist Hospital, the remains of 10 more martyrs and several injured were received following an Israeli strike on a commercial warehouse in the Sabra neighborhood of Gaza City. The warehouse was used by charities to distribute humanitarian aid.

• The same hospital also received the body of a female martyr and several injured after an Israeli drone dropped a bomb on Al-Sikka Street in the Zaytoun area of southeast Gaza City.

• Al-Shifa Hospital confirmed receiving 5 more martyrs following an Israeli drone strike targeting civilians in Al-Shati (Beach) Camp, west of Gaza City.

• One Palestinian was killed and others injured in a strike on a home near Al-Sahaba Medical Complex, in central Gaza.

• The bodies of 4 martyrs and several injured civilians arrived at the hospital after another strike targeted a group in Jabalia, in northern Gaza.

Targeting Those Waiting for Aid

Al-Awda Hospital in central Gaza reported receiving 1 martyr and 23 injuries after Israeli forces bombed a group of civilians waiting for aid on Salah al-Din Street near Wadi Gaza.

Deadly Attacks on Displaced Camps

Israeli forces also targeted a tent sheltering displaced people in the Al-Mawasi area west of Khan Younis, killing one Palestinian and injuring others, according to medical sources.

Southern Gaza Strikes

• Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis confirmed receiving 3 martyrs, including a woman, after an Israeli drone strike hit the Al-Katiba area, north of the city.

• The hospital also reported the arrival of 10 martyrs and more than 50 injured civilians after Israeli warplanes bombed a group waiting for aid in southwest Khan Younis.

• In Rafah, one martyr was confirmed after an Israeli strike in the western area of the governorate, according to medical reports.

These attacks are part of an intensifying Israeli assault targeting not only military sites but also civilian infrastructure, schools, aid centers, homes, and public gathering areas, aggravating Gaza’s humanitarian catastrophe amid famine, siege, and displacement.
