On Friday, a Palestinian child died due to an explosion of an object left behind by the Israeli army in the city of Rafah, in the Gaza Strip’s southmost part.
Medical sources said the child, Mohammad Yasser Al-Qadi, died as a result of the explosion of an object left behind by the occupation forces in Rafah.
Luke Irvin, Director of the United Nations Mine Action Service (UNMAS) in the occupied Palestinian territories, warned at the end of last month about the remnants of the occupation army and their impact on civilians’ lives.
Irvin noted that during the past 14 months, the UNMAS has encountered various types of munitions, including aerial bombs, rockets, and projectiles.
These munitions have caused civilian deaths and injuries, obstructed humanitarian operations, and initial reports document 92 victims since October 2023.
On Thursday, Israeli occupation forces’ gunfire killed a Palestinian father, north of Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.
The Israeli army has killed at least 47.417 Palestinians, including 17.841 children and 12.298 women, and injured more than 111.571, largely children and women, since October 7, 2023.
Among the slain Palestinians in Gaza are 1068 Medical staff, 94 Civil Defense, 204 journalists, 756 educational staff, and 203 UN staff.
More than 11,200, including 4,700 children and women, remain missing under the rubble of bombarded homes and buildings.
The number of slain Palestinians in the Gaza Strip is not final as rescue operations continue under the rubble and on destroyed streets, alleys and heavily bombarded neighborhoods across the destroyed coastal enclave despite limited means and equipment.
It is worth mentioning that the Israeli army has killed 70 Palestinians, including ten children and one woman, in the West Bank this year.
38 Palestinians were killed in Jenin, 15 in Tubas, 6 in Nablus, 5 in Tulkarem, 3 in Hebron, 2 in Bethlehem, and 1 in Jerusalem.
