GAZA, April 13, 2025 (WAFA) — Three Palestinians were killed and several others injured on Sunday as Israeli warplanes launched a series of airstrikes targeting areas in central and northern Gaza, according to medical and local sources.
In Deir el-Balah, central Gaza, an Israeli airstrike hit a building in the heart of the city, resulting in the killing of three Palestinians and injuring several others. Ambulances and civil defense teams rushed to the scene to evacuate the casualties.
In a separate strike, Israeli fighters jets targeted a residential home in the Al-Jurn neighborhood of Jabalia, in northern Gaza, causing injuries among civilians, according to local reports.
Meanwhile, local health authorities confirmed that the Palestinian death toll from the Israeli onslaught since October 2023 has risen to 50,904 documented fatalities, with an additional 116,156 individuals sustaining injuries. The majority of the victims are women and children.
According to the same sources, emergency services are still unable to reach many casualties and dead bodies trapped under the rubble or scattered on roads across the war-torn enclave, as Israeli occupation forces continue to target ambulance and civil defense crews.
Israel's genocidal onslaught continues undeterred despite calls from the United Nations 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.
