GAZA, Friday, October 13, 2023 (WAFA) - The bloody Israeli aggression is continuing in Gaza, with a series of airstrikes last night resulting in the tragic loss of life and the injury of scores of civilians, including children, across the besieged territory, according to local sources.

In Rafah, south of the Strip, three civilians were killed, and dozens more were wounded as Israeli aircraft targeted a residential building.

Meantime in Gaza City's Safatawi neighborhood, 18 people lost their lives, and many more were injured when another inhabited structure was mercilessly hit by an airstrike.

Four Palestinian civilians were also confirmed dead and others sustained injuries when an Israeli airstrike flattened a residential building in the Tel Al-Hawa neighborhood in Gaza City. 

Israeli occupation forces also targeted populated homes in Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip and the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood in Gaza City, resulting in further deaths and injuries among the local civilian population.

The situation remains catastrophic as medical teams worked throughout the night to retrieve the bodies of 17 individuals who were tragically killed following an Israeli airstrike on a residential building in the Al-Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza. 

In addition, three more casualties were retrieved from a house in the southern city of Rafah, further highlighting the devastating impact of the attacks on innocent civilians.
