Rafah bombing intensifies despite UN truce call

Rafah bombing intensifies despite UN truce call

Rafah bombing intensifies despite UN truce call











In an overnight bombing by Israeli forces on a house in Rafah, eighteen individuals tragically lost their lives, with nine of them being children.







Additionally, Israeli shelling in the Nassr neighbourhood, situated northeast of Rafah, has resulted in further casualties.


These attacks have struck Gaza's southern district, where over 1.4 million displaced Palestinians are attempting to shelter, despite a UN Security Council resolution that called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, marking the first such resolution passed during the nearly six-month-long conflict, Al Jazeera reports.






The Israeli military's operations extend to Khan Younis in southern Gaza, where raids have resulted in the seizure of weapons and military equipment, as well as the elimination of fighters and destruction of infrastructure.


Notably, Israeli forces have been engaged in significant operations around al-Shifa Hospital and in Khan Younis. Despite international calls for a cessation of hostilities, Israeli strikes persist, particularly targeting residential areas near Gaza City's al-Shifa Hospital, where clashes continue following a siege lasting over a week.


The Israeli military has conducted airstrikes on over 60 targets across Gaza, primarily in support of ground operations, according to statements from the Israeli army. These targets included attack tunnels and buildings where combatants were believed to be present.


Israeli forces are said to have struck launch sites in northern Gaza, from where rockets were launched towards the southern Israeli city of Sderot.


Moreover, Israeli forces continue to shell other areas in northern Gaza, including Beit Hanoun, eastern Jabalia, and Beit Lahiya, as reported Al Jazeera Arabic.



Horrific accounts as Israel continues attacks from north to south



Israel is ramping up its military attacks, in particular here in Rafah. Over the past couple of hours, we have been recording multiple air strikes that targeted three residential houses.


This shows that Rafah is no longer safe for more than 1.5 million Palestinians displaced here.


Attacks continued elsewhere in Gaza as well, including Jabalia refugee camp.


There have been horrific eyewitness accounts of Palestinians trying to flee Israel’s ongoing siege of al-Shifa Hospital, reporting that the forces destroyed much of the area, turning it into a graveyard. Some families are still trapped there after more than a week, living in unbearable conditions.
