17 Palestinians killed in Israeli strikes on Gaza as attacks escalate

GAZA, June 14, 2025 (WAFA) – At least 17 Palestinians were killed and dozens injured on Saturday in a series of Israeli strikes targeting multiple areas across the Gaza Strip, including Gaza City, northern Gaza, and Khan Younis in the south, according to local and medical sources.

Israeli drone and artillery attacks struck civilians in the Al-Tuffah neighborhood of eastern Gaza, the Al-Sudaniya area in the north, and eastern Khan Younis. 

Among the casualties were four people killed by a drone strike in Al-Tuffah, and 12 more shot or shelled while waiting for humanitarian aid in Al-Sudaniya. Another person was killed in the south when Israeli artillery shelled eastern Khan Younis.

Medical teams reported dozens of injuries, many in critical condition, as hospitals continue to struggle with overwhelming casualties and limited resources. Witnesses described scenes of chaos and panic as emergency crews worked to retrieve bodies and transport the wounded under continued threat of fire.

Meanwhile in Khan Younis, medical officials at Nasser Medical Complex reported that at least 40 more people were killed in those attacks since dawn, bringing the day's total death toll to over 57.

The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 2023 has so far resulted in at least 55,297 documented Palestinian fatalities, with over 128,426 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.
