GAZA, December 26, 2024 (WAFA) – Two paramedics were killed today in Israeli airstrikes targeting the vicinity of the Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahiya, northern Gaza, according to local sources.

The sources reported that the airstrike hit medics Abdulmajid Abu al-Eish and Maher al-Ajrami while they were responding to emergency calls, resulting in their immediate killing.

In a separate attack, another civilian was killed after an Israeli drone dropped a bomb near the entrance to Kamal Adwan Hospital, local and medical sources reported.

In the eastern Gaza City neighborhood of al-Zaytoun, rescue teams recovered the bodies of four individuals trapped under the rubble of a house that was struck by an Israeli airstrike late last night. The strike left the area in ruins, contributing to the growing death toll in the region.

Meanwhile, in the eastern Gaza City neighborhood of Al-Tuffah, several civilians were killed or injured when Israeli fighter jets targeted a home belonging to the Hamada family on Yafa Street.

The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 2023 has so far resulted in at least 45,227 documented Palestinian fatalities, with over 107,573 others injured.

Thousands of victims are feared trapped under rubble, inaccessible to emergency and civil defense teams due to Israeli attacks.

Israel's genocidal attacks continue unabated despite calls from the UN Security Council for an immediate ceasefire and directives from the International Court of Justice urging measures to prevent genocide and alleviate the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza.
