Israeli occupation forces continued their attacks and violations across the devastated Gaza Strip on Monday, wounding several Palestinians in separate strikes that targeted residential areas, displaced families’ tents, and crowded streets in different parts of the besieged enclave.
Medical sources said a number of wounded Palestinians were transferred to the Baptist Hospital in Gaza City after an Israeli military drone fired a missile at a group of civilians near the Dawla junction in the Zeitoun neighborhood, southeast of the city.

Also, Israeli armored vehicles opened fire toward the tents of displaced Palestinians in the al-Mawasi area of Rafah in Gaza’s southmost part, wounding several people sheltering there after being forcibly displaced from other parts of the Strip.
Later in the evening, a number of Palestinians were shot and wounded by Israeli forces in the al-Fallujah area of Jabalia, in the northern Gaza Strip; one of the injuries was described as critical.
Earlier, one Palestinian was killed and others were wounded when an Israeli military drone bombed an area in the al-Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza.

Local sources also reported three injuries in a separate drone strike near the 17th Roundabout on al-Rashid Street, west of Gaza City.
In the south, several Palestinians were shot and wounded by Israeli forces around Abu Hmeid Roundabout in the center of Khan Younis, as the army continued to target civilians and movement in the area.
A day earlier, a seven-month pregnant woman was among many slain Palestinians killed by Israeli missiles in the Gaza Strip. The woman was killed when the Israeli army fired a missile at a home in the Shati’ refugee camp, in Gaza city.

The Gaza Ministry of Health said 776 Palestinians have been killed and 2,171 wounded since the ceasefire began.
It’s been over six months since the ceasefire in Gaza went into effect. But a ceasefire that still leaves more than 100 people killed every month is not a real ceasefire, it’s a continuation of genocide carried out in a less visible form.
