Khan Younis: At least four Palestinians were killed and several others wounded this evening in an Israeli airstrike on Khan Younis, in the southern Gaza Strip, according to local sources.
According to Palestine News and Information Agency – WAFA, Israeli warplanes targeted a tent sheltering a displaced family behind the Abu Matar Mosque, located southwest of Khan Younis. The attack resulted in the death of four civilians, including a child, and left several others injured.
The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 2023 has so far resulted in at least 44,330 documented Palestinian fatalities, with over 104,933 others injured. Thousands of victims are feared trapped under rubble, inaccessible to emergency and civil defense teams due to Israeli attacks.
Israel’s attacks continue 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.
