GAZA, May 3, 2025 (WAFA) — Two sisters were killed Saturday afternoon in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a home in the town of Al-Fukhari, located southeast of Khan Younis in southern Gaza.

Local sources confirmed that the airstrike completely destroyed the house, killing the two women instantly and causing damage to nearby homes.

In a separate incident, three Palestinian fishermen were injured after Israeli naval forces opened fire on fishing boats off the coast of northern Gaza City.  

Additionally, Israeli artillery shelled the area of Qizan al-Najjar, also located south of Khan Younis, further intensifying attacks on civilian zones across southern Gaza.

The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 2023 has so far resulted in at least 52,495 documented Palestinian fatalities, with over 118,366 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.
