GAZA, (The Palestine Foundation Pakistan)
For the 37th consecutive day, the Israeli occupation army has continued to carry out attacks, ground incursions, and home demolitions in southern Gaza. These repeated violations of the truce have intensified the hardships faced by the population.
On Sunday morning, Israeli forces carried out a series of attacks in southern Gaza, including airstrikes, gunfire, and demolition of homes.
Local sources reported that Israeli warplanes launched air raids southeast of Khan Yunis, accompanied by artillery shelling and gunfire from military vehicles east of the city.
Heavy gunfire was also reported northeast of Rafah, where Israeli forces conducted a large-scale demolition operation in the northern part of the city, alongside artillery shelling in the west.
The sources added that Israeli armored vehicles opened intense fire towards the tents of displaced families in al-Mawasi area of Rafah.
Helicopters also bombed areas in northern Rafah, behind the yellow line near the border.
In a related context, Gaza’s civil defense service has warned that Israeli occupation authority still refuses to allow the entry of new tents into the Strip, leaving thousands of displaced families exposed to harsh weather.
In a statement on Sunday, the civil defense service said that the aid received so far amounts to less than 15 percent of the population’s basic needs.
It added that “the acute shortage of resources is severely limiting its ability to respond to the growing number of emergency calls, especially as the harsh weather conditions compound the suffering of displaced families living in fragile, makeshift shelters.”
