Second update – 11:30 pm Friday July 12, 2024
Two Palestinians were killed and others were injured Friday night, in an Israeli airstrike on Deir al-Balah, central Gaza Strip. Local sources reported that the occupation aircraft targeted a house in the city of Deir al-Balah, which led to the killing of two and the injury of others.
The Israeli occupation aircraft also targeted a house in the town of Abasan al-Kabira, east of Khan Yunis, in the southern Gaza Strip, while the Israeli occupation artillery continued to shell the northern neighborhoods of the Nuseirat camp, in the central Gaza Strip.
The Israeli occupation forces have continued their aggression on the Gaza Strip, by land, sea and air, since October 7, 2023, which has resulted in the martyrdom of more than 38,345 citizens, the majority of whom are women and children, and the injury of more than 88,295 others, in an incomplete toll, as thousands of victims are still under the rubble .
Also on Friday, Amnesty International issued a statement that the repeated Israeli evacuation orders for the residents of Gaza City amount to “illegal displacement, which is a war crime “.
The international organization added, in a series of posts on its account on the “X” platform, that “Palestinian civilians are facing multiple waves of displacement” due to the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip for 9 months and the repeated “evacuation” orders for Gaza City .
Commenting on the Israeli occupation forces issuing a new “evacuation” order for Gaza City two days ago, ordering all its residents to move south, Amnesty International said: “In the absence of any guarantees of return after the end of the war, and the lack of safe and livable accommodation for the displaced, this order amounts to unlawful displacement, which is a war crime . ”

According to Al Jazeera, most of what the Civil Defense personnel found after the occupation withdrew from Tal al-Hawa were decomposed remains scattered everywhere, of people who were sniped at, executed, and burned in their homes, including children, women, and the elderly.
These horrific scenes in Tal al-Hawa are just a replica of what happened and is happening in all the neighborhoods of the Gaza Strip . The images of al-Shifa and Nasser hospitals in the cities of Gaza and Khan Yunis are still stuck in the minds of survivors, where the Israeli occupation soldiers left behind dozens of decomposing bodies and mass graves, and buried those whose identities and how they were killed are unknown.
Updated Jul 12, 2024 at 11:08 am: On Friday, day 280 of Israel’s onslaught on Gaza, Israeli bombardment continued in the pre-dawn hours in several parts of the Gaza Strip, killing a number of Palestinian civilians, including an infant.
The Israeli attacks came as the US Biden administration sent a shipment of 500-pound bombs to the Israeli military to continue its onslaught of Gaza.
“The U.S. will soon begin shipping to Israel the 500-pound bombs that the Biden administration had previously suspended, ending a two-month pause it had imposed in a bid to reduce civilian casualties in Gaza, U.S. officials said,” according to the Wall Street Journal.
In the early hours of Friday, Israeli forces bombed a house in the central Gaza Strip. Local sources said that four civilians were killed, including an infant, when the Israeli occupation forces bombed a house in the Al-Mufti area, north of the Nusseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.
Also, four Palestinians were killed, and many were injured when the army fired a missile at a home for the Abu Mustafa family in the Da’wa rea, north of Nusseirat.
The sources added that a number of the injured, including a girl whose injuries were described as serious, were transferred to Al-Awda Hospital in the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip as a result of the bombing.
The Friday assault comes just after around 60 bodies were found under the rubble in the Sheja’eyya neighborhood in Gaza City, after Israel’s military declared an end to its operation there, and its tanks and armored vehicles left the area.
The Israeli offensive on Sheja’eyya left more than 300 residential units and more than 100 business destroyed.
Israel’s military said on Wednesday it had completed its mission in Sheja’eyya after two weeks, but bombardments and fighting continued to shake Gaza City. Witnesses said tanks and troops had moved on to other parts of the city.
In addition, an Israeli missile, fired from a drone, killed at least two Palestinian in the Tal Al-Sultan neighborhoods, west of Rafah, in the Gaza Strip’s southmost part.
According to a report from the Al Jazeera news agency, the so-called ‘Netzarim axis’ is no longer just a safe passage for the Israeli occupation from which its forces launch their aggression on the various neighborhoods of the Gaza Strip.
Rather, in the past few days, it has turned into an area of military operations and heated battles, in which the Israeli occupation army is suffering heavy losses at the hands of the Palestinian resistance.

The Netzarim Corridor is a corridor separating the south and north of the Gaza Strip. It is an agricultural area almost devoid of people. It is about 7 kilometers long and extends from the “Gaza Envelope” area in the east to the Mediterranean Sea in the west. It was named after the settlement that was established there in 1972 and was removed in 2005 with Israel’s withdrawal from the Strip by order of former Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon .

In the past three days, the Palestinian resistance factions announced that the Netzarim axis witnessed 9 military operations launched by the resistance against the occupation soldiers and their various vehicles.
While the Israeli occupation army spoke about 4 “difficult security” operations that took place in this axis and in the Tal Al-Hawa area, during the same period that the resistance spoke about.
Corpses of dozens of Palestinians remain in alleys, and inside bombarded homes in the Sena’a area and Tal Al-Hawa in Gaza City after the Israeli army withdrew following a 7-day offensive that led to hundreds of casualties.
In Khan Younis, in the southern part of the Gaza Strip, at least eight Palestinians were killed in the center of the city after the army fired missiles and shells at the center of the city, and two were injured by live rounds from an Israeli helicopter in the Qizan Rashwan area, in the southern part of the city.
