GAZA: Seven Palestinians were killed, and others were injured on Thursday, in an Israeli bombing of the city of Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip.
Local sources reported that the occupation aircraft targeted several homes and a mosque in the city of Rafah, killing seven citizens and wounding dozens.
The city of Rafah is the last refuge for the displaced people in the stricken Strip. Since the beginning of the ground operation launched by Israel on the Gaza Strip on October 27, civilians have been asked to go from the north and center of the Strip to the south, claiming that they are ‘safe areas,’ but they were not spared from the bombing.
Nowadays, Rafah, despite its narrow area, which is estimated at about 65 square kilometers, is a refuge more than 1.3 million Palestinians, the majority of them live in tents that lack the minimum requirements for life.
The occupation forces have been carrying on a brutal aggression against the Gaza Strip by land, sea and air since October 7, killing 29,410 Palestinians, th
e majority of whom were children and women, and injuring 69,465 others, while thousands of victims remain under the rubble.
