RAFAH (Palestine Foundation Information Center) Two Palestinians have been martyred and four others including children wounded on Monday by Israeli occupation forces (IOF) gunfire and due to the explosion of bombs left by the IOF in citizens’ homes before withdrawing the Gaza Strip.
Local sources explained that a Palestinian citizen and a child were shot dead by the IOF in the city of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, while a third was martyred as a result of an explosion of an explosive body of the remnants of the Israeli occupation, east of the city of Rafah.
Medical sources at the European Hospital in Khan Yunis reported that four citizens arrived from Rafah, in southern Gaza, to the hospital’s emergency ward after they were injured by shrapnel and IOF bullets.
Local sources said an Israeli Quadcopter threw a bomb on citizens in Rafah while they were checking their homes, which they were forced to leave during the IOF incursion into the city.
The sources affirmed that three children were wounded, as a result of tampering with dangerous Israeli army remnants left inside and in the vicinity of homes and areas vacated by the IOF after the ceasefire came into effect on Sunday, ending 15 months of genocidal war.
Earlier, the Ministry of Health announced the arrival of 122 martyrs, including 62 recovered from under the rubble, and 341 injuries at Gaza hospitals, due to the Israeli aggression on the Strip during the past 24 hours.
