On Friday, Day 728 of the ongoing genocide, Israeli forces killed at least 89 Palestinians and injured dozens more, across the Gaza Strip, as the genocide against Gaza’s population continues unabated.
The victims include civilians in the north, center, and south of the Strip, many of whom were targeted in their homes, shelters, and aid lines.
Of those killed since dawn, 43 were in northern Gaza, 10 in the central region, and 36 in the south.
Among them were four Palestinians who had been waiting for humanitarian aid when they were struck.
Later Friday evening, Israeli airstrikes killed 15 more Palestinians and injured at least 20 in central Gaza, when warplanes targeted a group of people near a roundabout in the Maghazi refugee camp, in central Gaza.
Another three were killed, and others wounded, in a separate strike on a home west of Gaza City.
In the Shati refugee camp, Israeli jets bombed residential buildings on Eyada Street, killing five people, including two children, and wounding many others. At least ten more remain trapped under the rubble, with rescue teams unable to reach them due to ongoing shelling.
