At least 9 killed, many injured in overnight Israeli attacks: Report

Six people were killed and several injured in an Israeli attack overnight on a group of people in the Jabalia area of northern Gaza, the Wafa news agency reports.

One person was also killed in an Israeli attack on the home of the Wadi family in the Beit Lahiya area, also in the north of the Palestinian territory.

In nearby Gaza City, two people were killed and several wounded when Israeli aircraft attacked homes in the Sabra neighbourhood. People remain missing and are believed to be buried under the rubble following the attack, Wafa reports. A separate attack on the home of the al-Wahidi family resulted in an unknown number of casualties in the neighbourhood.

In southern Khan Younis, women and children were among those killed and injured in an attack on a school housing displaced people.

Israeli artillery attacks were also reported in Gaza City’s Zeitoun, Hawa and Sheikh Ijlin areas, while Israeli ground forces in southern Rafah were reported to have systematically demolished residential buildings in the west of the city.

Video footage shared by our colleagues at Al Jazeera Arabic shows the aftermath of an overnight attack in Beit Lahiya.

The Civil Defence in Gaza has issued a statement, warning that it is running out of fuel and its rescue missions “may stop at any moment”.

It said on its Telegram channel that rescue crews carried out several missions this morning alone, involving recovering bodies and survivors from four homes attacked in Gaza City’s Sabra neighbourhood, as well as two separate houses in the Shujayea area.

“Our crews cannot deal with the huge number of targets while running out of fuel,” its statement said. “The reality of the health system in the northern Gaza Strip is tragic as the aggression continues.”
