ALBAWABA - An Israeli operation targeted Khan Younis in Southern Gaza, resulting in a massacre that killed dozens.
Al Jazeera reported that at least 30 bodies have been retrieved from the targeted area after Israeli troops withdrew from the area. Israeli forces staged the surprise incursion under heavy bombardment, shelling dozens of homes, according to witnesses.
Meanwhile, in Jabalia, because of limited resources, close proximity to nearby homes, and limited space, civil defense forces were having a tough time recovering injured and martyrs from beneath the debris, according to the SABA news agency.
An eyewitness informed SABA that although the people of the al-Lafwiyah sector were safe, the Israeli troops had their homes over their heads. The witness also mentioned that the same neighborhood had been hit a few days prior by a large Israeli missile.
These attacks come as Iran has launched a large-scale missile strike on Israel, sparking security warnings and forcing millions of Israelis to seek refuge as sirens blast around the country, notably in Beersheba and the Negev Desert.
The Israeli army has warned that Iranian attacks might be widespread, with explosions recorded in Israel and neighboring nations. The Israeli Foreign Ministry confirmed the nationwide alarm, while the Israeli military has urged all civilians to remain in shelters as the situation escalates.
Al-Aqsa Flood operation against Israel
Hamas military group announced on Oct. 7 a military operation called "Al-Aqsa Flood" against Israel which is the biggest offensive in decades.
Palestinian fighters “infiltrated” Israel from the Gaza Strip and captured military bases and took hostages as photos and videos went viral online showing Hamas fighters on vehicles inside Israel and others paragliding into occupation territory.
In response, Israeli armed forces announced targeting Hamas positions inside the Gaza Strip. Thousands were killed, and dozens of thousands of others were injured in the Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip.
The latest statistics by the Ministry of Health in Gaza revealed that the death toll from Israeli brutal pounding on the Gaza Strip since October 7 has soared to 41,638+ people, with more than 96,460+ injuries.
Since then, approximately 85% of Gazans have been displaced, all of whom are suffering from severe food insecurity, and the healthcare system has collapsed. Hundreds of thousands of people lack shelter, and aid trucks are entering the area at a lower rate than before the conflict began.
