GAZA, Sunday, May 26, 2024 (WAFA) — At least one Palestinian was killed and several others injured this afternoon when an Israeli airstrike hit the home of the Rasras family in central Rafah, southern Gaza.

Local sources reported that the attack targeted a home belonging to the Rasras family, causing significant damage and casualties. The wounded were transported to Kuwait Specialized Hospital in the city for medical attention.

The ongoing Israeli military offensive in Rafah has intensified, with the Rafah border crossing, Gaza's sole gateway to the world, remaining occupied by the Israeli occupation army closed despite international calls for its reopening.

Last Friday, the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the highest judicial body of the United Nations, issued an order demanding an immediate halt to Israeli military offensive in Rafah and the reopening of the Rafah border crossing to facilitate the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza.

Despite this ruling, Israeli forces have continued their offensive, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis in the region.
