3 killed as Israel bombs displaced persons’ tents in central Gaza Strip
ANKARA (AA) – At least three Palestinians were killed and over 18 others injured on Sunday in an Israeli attack targeting displaced persons’ tents in a hospital in the central Gaza Strip, the government media office said.
“The Israeli occupation forces committed a massacre within the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital by bombing several tents housing displaced persons,” the media office said in a statement on the attack on Deir al-Balah.
“This brutal attack resulted in the martyrdom of three individuals and more than 18 injuries so far, including serious injuries currently being treated by the medical teams at the hospital,” it added.
The media office condemned “in the strongest terms this new massacre perpetrated by the Israeli occupation forces.”
It urged “the international community and international and UN organizations to pressure the Israeli occupation to stop the genocide and the bloodshed in the Gaza Strip.”
Israel has killed more than 39,500 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injured nearly 91,300, according to local health authorities.
After almost 10 months of Israel’s attacks, vast tracts of Gaza lie in ruins amid a crippling blockade of food, clean water, and medicine.
Israel stands accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice, which ordered it to immediately halt its military operation in the southern city of Rafah, where more than 1 million Palestinians had sought refuge from the war before it was invaded on May 6.
