Israeli Strikes Claim Lives in Gaza: A Tragic Day for Al-Shati and Al-Tuffah

 

In a devastating turn of events, Israeli attacks on districts of Gaza City have left at least 42 people dead, according to Ismail Al-Thawabta, the director of the Hamas-run government media office. The violence unfolded on Saturday, with one strike targeting houses in Al-Shati, one of Gaza’s historic refugee camps, resulting in the loss of 24 lives. An additional 18 Palestinians were killed in a separate strike on houses in the Al-Tuffah neighborhood.

The Israeli military has confirmed its involvement, stating that fighter jets struck two Hamas military infrastructure sites in the area of Gaza City. Further details are expected to emerge soon. The situation remains tense, and the toll on civilian lives is deeply tragic.
