GAZA, (The Palestine Foundation Pakistan)The Israeli occupation army committed a horrific massacre in the east of Gaza City on Saturday evening, killing 17 Palestinians and leaving dozens wounded or missing. The attack targeted a residential block belonging to the Abdul-Al family.
Gaza’s civil defense service said that Israeli warplanes bombed a residential block belonging to the Abdul-Al family on Yaffa Street in Gaza City’s al-Tuffah neighborhood, resulting in a massacre that claimed the lives of 17 people, including seven children aged between two months and eight years, and injured more than 40 others.
The civil defense service reported that its teams were still carrying out rescue and search operations in the area, where more than 15 people were trapped under the rubble.
Earlier, the Gaza Rights Center (GRC) said that its field team documented 59 Israeli aerial and artillery attacks in Gaza within less than 16 hours following the US president’s call for a ceasefire.
These Israeli attacks targeted densely populated areas, neighborhoods, homes, commercial and public service facilities, and main roads, according to GRC.
GRC reported that these documented attacks claimed the lives of 34 Palestinians — 27 in Gaza City, five in Khan Yunis, and two in central Gaza — and left dozens injured, including women and children. The strikes also caused extensive damage to both private and public property.
