Since dawn on Friday, August 30, 16 Palestinians, including a child, have been killed in a series of airstrikes launched by the Israeli occupation forces on various areas in the Gaza Strip since the early hours of the morning. These airstrikes coincided with a partial withdrawal of the occupation forces from the Khan Yunis area after a 22-day military operation, causing widespread destruction to the infrastructure and residential buildings.
Intensive airstrikes
The residents of the Gaza Strip woke up to the sound of intensive airstrikes targeting various areas of the Strip. In eastern Khan Yunis, the occupation aircraft targeted the home of the Abu Daqqa family in the town of Abasan al-Kabira, which led to the martyrdom of three Palestinians and the serious injury of others, who were transferred by ambulance crews to Nasser Hospital.
Targeting Citizens Houses
In the town of al-Fakhari, east of Khan Yunis, an Israeli warplane targeted another house, resulting in seven injuries, who were transferred to Nasser Hospital for treatment. Khan Yunis witnessed a partial withdrawal of the "Israeli" forces, after a military operation that lasted 22 days, which left widespread destruction. Palestinian sources reported that ambulance crews recovered the bodies of 9 martyrs from the neighborhoods and streets from which the forces withdrew east of the city, especially from the Al-Mahta neighborhood and Street 5.
Destroying hundreds of houses
According to local sources and eyewitnesses, the withdrawal of the "Israeli" army revealed the extent of the destruction left by the military operations, as hundreds of residential buildings were destroyed, and significant damage was inflicted on the city's infrastructure.
Mawasi area
The occupation also withdrew from areas east of Deir al-Balah, leaving widespread destruction to the infrastructure and residential buildings, after a military operation that lasted for days, in which thousands of Palestinians were displaced to the Mawasi area, which is crowded with displaced people.
Killing Children
In the northern Gaza Strip, specifically in the Jabalia camp, two Palestinians, one of whom was a child, were martyred as a result of a violent shelling that targeted a residential apartment near the Al-Hawja intersection.
Shelling Al-Zeitoun Neighborhood
Red Crescent paramedics transferred several injuries, some of them critical, to Al-Awda Hospital in the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip, after an "Israeli" bombardment targeted a house belonging to the Al-Qassas family northeast of the camp. The "Israeli" artillery also shelled the eastern and southern areas of the Al-Zeitoun neighborhood southeast of Gaza City, and the western areas of the city such as Al-Rimal, Tal Al-Hawa and the outskirts of the Al-Shati camp, in addition to the Al-Sabra neighborhood and the western areas of the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.
