GAZA, Wednesday, May 1, 2024 (WAFA) – Several Palestinians were dawn Wednesday killed in an Israeli airstrike on al-Jalaa Street in the city of Gaza, according to local sources.
They confirmed that Israeli warplanes targeted a house on al-Jalaa Street, killing several Palestinian civilians and injuring others.
They added that the operations rescue operations were still underway to recover the bodies from under the rubble of the house.
Currently on trial before the International Court of Justice for genocide against Palestinians, Israel has been waging a devastating war on Gaza since October 7, killing at least 34,535 Palestinians and injuring over 77,704 others.
Moreover, at least 7,000 people are unaccounted for, presumed dead under the rubble of their homes throughout the Strip.
Palestinian and international organizations say that the majority of those killed and wounded are women and children.
The Israeli aggression has also resulted in the forceful displacement of nearly two million people from all over the Gaza Strip, with the vast majority of the displaced forced into the densely crowded southern city of Rafah near the border with Egypt – in what has become Palestine’s largest mass exodus since the 1948 Nakba.
