On Thursday evening, Palestinian medical sources said an Israeli missile killed a Palestinian and injured four others after the army targeted a home east of Khan Younis in the southern part of the Gaza Strip.
Medical sources at the Gaza European Hospital in Khan Younis said the army killed Ahmad Mahmoud Abu Daqqa, 43 after the Israeli missile struck a home in Bani Soheila town, east of Khan Younis.
They added that the missile caused serious property damage and injured at least four Palestinians.
The Israeli army also fired missiles into Palestinian farmlands, an industrial facility, and several buildings in various parts of the Gaza Strip, causing damage to the building and a few homes.
On Thursday dawn, the Israeli Air Force fired a missile at an apartment in Khan Younis, killing three Palestinians and wounding several others, some seriously.
Israeli missiles have killed 24 Palestinians, including six children and three women, and injured at least 76, including 21 children and eight women since Israel launched its offensive three days earlier.
Many of the wounded Palestinians are in serious condition, especially after being buried under the rubber of their bombarded homes.
The Israeli army has killed 140 Palestinians, including 26 children and six women, in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank since the beginning of this year.
