Artillery and aerial bombardment by the occupation targets various areas in the Gaza Strip

On Monday, the occupation army carried out artillery and aerial bombardment targeting various areas in the Gaza Strip, in a new development that constitutes a violation of the ceasefire agreement in effect since October 10th.

Palestinian sources reported that Israeli military vehicles opened fire towards the eastern areas of Khan Yunis city in the southern Strip, while occupation artillery shelled the southern Al-Mawasi area west of Rafah city.

The same sources stated that occupation aircraft carried out an intense raid targeting the eastern areas of Al-Tuffah neighborhood, east of Gaza City, areas where the occupation is still stationed. The artillery shelling also included the eastern areas of Gaza City, coinciding with heavy gunfire from military vehicles towards the east of Al-Maghazi camp in the central Strip.

Since the ceasefire agreement came into effect, 442 Palestinians have been killed and 1236 others injured, in addition to severe restrictions imposed on the entry of food, medical supplies, and shelter materials into the Strip, where approximately 2.4 million Palestinians live in extremely harsh humanitarian conditions.

The war on the Gaza Strip since October 8, 2023, has resulted in more than 71,000 martyrs and about 171,000 injured, the majority of whom are children and women, in addition to widespread destruction affecting nearly 90% of the civilian infrastructure, at a time when the United Nations estimated the cost of reconstruction at approximately 70 billion dollars.
