On Thursday evening, Israeli forces continued their missile and shelling campaign across the Gaza Strip, resulting in the deaths and injuries of dozens of Palestinians.
In Abasan Al-Kabira, a town east of Khan Younis in southern Gaza, a missile strike on a residential home claimed the lives of at least seven Palestinians and left many others wounded.
Among the deceased were Mohammad Nasser Al-Breem, Mohammad Kamal Najjar, Mohammad Mesbah, and Abdul-Rahman Mesbah. Medical sources reported that the bombing caused extensive destruction to the targeted property and surrounding buildings, leading to numerous injuries, some of which were critical.
Tragedy struck further as a Palestinian father, his wife, and several of their children were killed in another Israeli airstrike on their home, also east of Khan Younis.
In Rafah, located in the southernmost part of Gaza, Israeli forces opened fire in the Shaboura area, killing a young man, Odai Abu Amra.
