Two dead and wounded in an Israeli raid on Al-Maghazi camp

Two Palestinians were martyred and others were injured, at dawn today, Friday, in an Israeli occupation air force shelling of a gathering of citizens in Al-Maghazi camp in the central Gaza Strip, according to a source at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital.

Sources had reported the martyrdom of three Palestinians and the injury of others with varying injuries as a result of two separate Israeli occupation attacks on the Gaza Strip yesterday, Thursday, while the Israeli army said that it attacked a Hamas element who was planning an attack south of the Strip.

The Israeli occupation army carried out, on Thursday evening, shooting and demolition operations of residential buildings in the city of Rafah, in the southern Strip.

Local sources reported that the occupation vehicles fired heavily near the Morag axis north of the city of Rafah, simultaneously with heavy gunfire towards areas in the east of Khan Yunis city.

The occupation vehicles also opened fire east of Gaza City.

The occupation artillery had renewed its shelling of Palestinian homes in the town of Bani Suheila, east of Khan Yunis city. The shelling coincided with gunfire from vehicles stationed east of the city.

Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip said that it had received the bodies of fifteen Palestinian martyrs released by the occupation authorities, which raises the number of bodies received to three hundred and sixty.

The bodies of the martyrs were transferred via the International Committee of the Red Cross to Al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza City.

A statement from the ministry indicated that medical teams are dealing with the bodies of the martyrs according to approved procedures and protocols in preparation for completing examination and documentation operations and handing over the bodies to their families.

It is worth noting that the occupation forces have killed 508 Palestinians and injured 1356 others since the ceasefire agreement came into effect on October 11 last year, according to the Palestinian Information Center.
