GAZA, July 8, 2025 (WAFA) – The Israeli occupation forces continued the aggression on the Gaza Strip at dawn on Tuesday, targeting civilian homes and shelters for the displaced. This resulted in the killing of 13 citizens, including children and women, and the injury of dozens more, in a series of violent airstrikes across the Strip.

The Baptist Hospital announced the death of two citizens and the injury of others as a result of an attack targeting the home of Khader al-Jamasi, near the al-Ibki Mosque in the al-Tuffah neighborhood, east of the city.

A health source at Al-Awda Hospital in Nuseirat camp said that a number of citizens were injured when the Abu Helu al-Sharqiya School, which houses displaced persons in the Bureij camp in the central Gaza Strip, was directly targeted by Israeli airstrikes, sparking panic among displaced families.
