On Sunday, September 6th, day 338 of Israel’s relentless assault on the entire Palestinian population in Gaza, Israeli troops continued their bombardment of civilian areas. From a pre-dawn airstrike that killed an entire family, to the killing of a woman and her child in the evening, the bombing continued unabated throughout the night and day.
11:50 pm update:
Medical sources reported that 3 Palestinians were killed and 7 others were injured in an Israeli bombardment that targeted a house east of the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip.
Other raids targeted a house on Al-Da’wa Street, north of the camp, resulting in the complete destruction of the house.
Earlier on Sunday evening, a child was killed and a number of Palestinians were injured in an Israeli artillery shelling that targeted a house in the Tuffah neighborhood east of Gaza City. A Wafa correspondent reported that ambulance teams transferred the child’s body and the wounded to the remains of the Baptist Hospital in Gaza. Like every hospital in Gaza, the Israeli military has bombed and attacked the Baptist Hospital, leaving it virtually without supplies.
The Palestinian Red Crescent stated that it has become extremely difficult to communicate with the emergency rooms in Gaza hospitals, due to the damage to the communications networks as a result of the ongoing Israeli attacks, which increases the complexity of rescue and relief efforts.

A number of wounded people were transferred after the occupation forces bombed the Al-Fakhouri family home in the vicinity of Al-Sabra Clinic, south of Gaza City:
In addition, Israeli occupation forces opened fire on a group of citizens in the town of Al-Shawka, east of Rafah city, south of the Gaza Strip, which led to the killing of two citizens.
The Israeli occupation forces opened direct fire on ambulances while they were trying to retrieve casualties from the Rafah beach, as the occupation’s warships targeted the tents of the displaced on the beach, which led to the injury of a number of citizens.
Local sources indicated that the Israeli occupation warplanes bombed two houses belonging to the Muammar family and the Aslih family in the Al-Manara neighborhood, south of Khan Yunis, in conjunction with violent raids launched by the occupation warplanes on the same area.
The Israeli occupation forces have continued their aggression by land, sea and air on the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, resulting in the killing of 40,972 citizens and the injury of 94,761 others, in an incomplete toll, as thousands of victims are still under the rubble and on the roads, and ambulance and rescue crews cannot reach them.
Among the slain Palestinians are at least 16,589 children, 11,207 women, 182 journalists and 23 emergency responders, 885 medical staff, 82 Civil Defense staff, and 203 UNRWA staff.
Most experts estimate the death toll is much higher – and could be as high as 200,000, when counting both direct and indirect deaths related to the Israeli war on Gaza that began October 7th 2023 when 1100 Israelis were killed, including 700 civilians, inside Israel. Around 500 Israeli soldiers have been killed between October 7th and now – both in Gaza and on the Israeli border with Lebanon

A new statement by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees noted the ongoing closure of “nearly 200 schools in the Gaza Strip, all of which have been closed since last October, and many of them were used as shelters for the displaced throughout the war .”
The UN agency indicated that “in some of these schools, UNRWA teams are working to return thousands of children to learning through recreational activities and psychosocial support.”
The Israeli occupation forces have continued their aggression by land, sea and air on the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, resulting in the killing of 40,939 citizens and the injury of 94,616 others, in an incomplete toll, as thousands of victims are still under the rubble and on the roads, and ambulance and rescue crews cannot reach them.
