Israeli strikes kill nine civilians, injure others in Gaza Strip

GAZA, June 3, 2025 (WAFA) – Several Israeli strikes on Tuesday evening killed at least nine civilians and injured others in several parts of the war-torn Gaza Strip, according to WAFA correspondent.

He reported that an Israeli airstrike targeted the Jorat al-Lout area, south of Khan Younes, in the southern Gaza Strip, claiming the lives of four civilians, who were rushed to Nasser Medical Complex.

Meanwhile, an Israeli combat drone targeted a group of civilians on the Abu Arif Street in Deir al-Balah in the central Strip, claiming the lives of three civilians and injuring others.

In the meantime, Israeli bombing targeted a charging station for cell phones near al-Fadila Mosque in the Zeitoun neighborhood, east of Gaza City, killing a father and his son.

This came as Israeli bombing also targeted the vicinity of As-Sorani Mountain, east of the Tuffah neighborhood, east of Gaza, at a time when artillery shelled the areas to the east of Jabalia in the northern enclave.

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.

The death toll reached at least 4,240 with 12,860 others wounded, according to medical sources. In the last 24 hours, the bodies of 40 slain Palestinians, including a body retrieved from the rubble, and 208 casualties were admitted to Gaza hospitals, noting that these numbers exclude hospitals in the northern Strip.

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 54,510 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injuring 124,901 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.
