At least 17 civilians were killed and dozens injured over the last night in continued Israeli airstrikes targeting populated areas across the Gaza Strip, according to medical sources.

In Deir al-Balah, one person was killed and others wounded in an Israeli airstrike targeting the city. Eight more people were killed and several others injured in an Israeli strike on a house in the Zaytoun neighborhood, southeast of Gaza City. The victims were taken to the Al-Ahli Al-Arabi Baptist Hospital in the city. Meanwhile, rescue teams recovered the bodies of three children and their mother from the Al-Rai family from the rubble of their home, which was bombed two days ago in Nuseirat refugee camp. In Khan Yunis, south of the enclave, three people were killed, including a father, Mahm oud Najjar, and his son, Adel, when an Israeli army drone attacked a location in the neighborhood of Fakhari, east of the city. The three were transported to the Gaza European Hospital. Simultaneously, local sources reported that the Israeli occupation army demolished residential buildings in the Saudi neighborhood west of Rafah City.
