GAZA, October 5, 2025 (WAFA) – The Israeli occupation army continued its heavy bombardment across various areas of the Gaza Strip on Monday, resulting in multiple injuries and extensive damage to property, including the complete destruction of Al-Azhar University in Gaza City.

Local sources reported that Israeli warplanes targeted displaced people's tents east of Asda neighborhood, north of Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip, causing injuries to several civilians.

Israeli artillery also shelled gatherings of civilians waiting for humanitarian aid east of Wadi Gaza, in central Gaza, leading to multiple injuries.

In Gaza City, Israeli warplanes carried out consecutive airstrikes on the neighborhoods of Sabra, Al-Jalaa, and Al-Thalathini. Meantime, residential buildings belonging to the Al-Louh and Abu Shaaban families near the Tayaran intersection were targeted, resulting in injuries and widespread destruction to the targeted buildings and neighboring homes.

Additionally, Israeli fighter jets struck Al-Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza, causing injuries and damage to residents' homes.

Simultaneously, intense shelling targeted Al-Azhar University in Gaza City, completely destroying the facility amid the ongoing assault on civilian infrastructure and facilities across the Gaza Strip.

The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 2023 has so far resulted in at least 67,074 documented Palestinian fatalities, with over 169,430 others injured.

Thousands of victims are feared trapped under rubble, inaccessible to emergency and civil defense teams due to Israeli attacks.
