Six civilians killed in Israeli shelling of Gaza's Rafah city

GAZA, December 10, 2024 (WAFA) - Six civilians were killed and others were injured on Tuesday in the Israeli bombardment of various areas of the southern Gaza Strip's Rafah Governorate.

According to local sources, an occupation drone targeted a group of civilians north of the city of Rafah, resulting in the killing of three citizens and the injury of several others.

An Israeli drone shelled the al-Shakoush area northwest of Rafah, which led to the killing of two citizens. One citizen was killed in an Israeli bombing that targeted the Khirbat al-Adas area in the north, in conjunction with the continuous artillery bombardment of several areas in Rafah, and the Zinna area east of Khan Yunis.

The occupation aircraft targeted the vicinity of the Al-Nour Mosque in “Block 9” in the Bureij refugee camp in the central Strip, resulting in the injury of several civilians.

According to medical sources, eight civilians have been killed since dawn today in the ongoing Israeli bombardment of the city of Rafah.

The Israeli occupation’s ongoing aggression on the Gaza Strip by land, sea and air, since October 7, 2023, has so far resulted in the killing of 44,786 civilians, mostly women and children, and the injury of 106,188 others.

Thousands of victims remain missing; either buried under the rubble or scattered on the roads, as rescue teams face tremendous difficulties in reaching them due to the continued Israeli attacks and the massive amount of debris.

Casualty data in Gaza are incomplete due to the ongoing intensive Israeli aggression, the repeated and complete interruption of communication and internet services, lack of fuel and devastated infrastructure, which render it difficult to document figures.
