GAZA, (The Palestine Foundation Pakistan)
Israeli warplanes launched fresh airstrikes on several areas across the Gaza Strip early Friday, killing a Palestinian woman and wounding others, as violations of the fragile ceasefire continued for the second consecutive month.
Local sources said Maysa Jaber al-Attar was killed after an Israeli drone fired at her in the al-Atatra neighborhood, northwest of Gaza City. The attack came amid renewed bombardments across the northern and southern parts of the besieged enclave.
Israeli warplanes carried out strikes southeast of Khan Yunis, while artillery units stationed along the so-called “yellow line” shelled areas east of Beit Lahia in northern Gaza. Local media reported at least two additional air raids northwest of Gaza City.
Israeli armored vehicles also opened heavy fire east of Khan Yunis, Deir al-Balah, and central Gaza, in what residents described as a pattern of nightly assaults aimed at “keeping Gaza under fire despite declared ceasefire terms.”
The attacks came as the Gaza Ministry of Health announced that the death toll from Israel’s ongoing genocide had risen to 69,187 martyrs, with 170,703 wounded since the beginning of the war in October 2023.
The ministry said hundreds remain buried under the rubble of destroyed homes and in inaccessible streets, as ambulance and civil defense crews struggle to reach them amid continued bombardment and fuel shortages.
Israel’s US-backed genocide has destroyed or damaged around 90% of the Strip’s civilian infrastructure, including residential towers, hospitals, schools, and water networks. The GMO estimated the preliminary cost of reconstruction at $70 billion.
