GAZA, May 16, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli strikes on Friday evening killed 11 Palestinians and injured others in the cities of Khan Younes and Gaza, according to WAFA correspondent.

He said that a combat drone targeted a group of civilians on the Abu Srour Street in the Bani Suheila town, east of Khan Younes, killing six civilians and injuring others.

Israeli drones also targeted civilians in the vicinity of Al-Andalus Tower, northwest of Gaza, killing four.

Meanwhile, another civilian succumbed to critical wounds sustained in Israeli bombardment that targeted a tent sheltering displaced people in the Al-Mashru‘ area, west of the city.

Israel unilaterally ended the Gaza ceasefire agreement and resumed its aggression on the Strip on Tuesday, March 18, carrying out a wave of bloody airstrikes across the Strip and killing hundreds of Palestinians, including over 100 children.

The death toll reached at least 2,985 with 8,173 others wounded, according to medical sources. Emergency teams are attempting to recover victims still trapped beneath the rubble.

The aggression was resumed amidst concerns over the deterioration of the humanitarian situation in the Strip given the ongoing siege and ban on the entry of medical and humanitarian aid.

Israel has waged a military onslaught on the Strip since October 2023, killing at least 53,119 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injuring 120,214 others.

Moreover, at least 10,000 people are unaccounted for, presumed dead under the rubble of their homes throughout the Strip.

The Israeli aggression has also resulted in the forceful displacement of nearly two million people from all over the Gaza Strip, with the vast majority of the displaced forced into the densely crowded southern city of Rafah near the border with Egypt – in what has become Palestine’s largest mass exodus since the 1948 Nakba.
