Israel launches ‘violent raids’ in south Gaza
JERUSALEM – AFP
Hamas said Sunday that Israel had launched a series of “very violent raids” targeting the southern city of Khan Yunis and the road from there to Rafah, near the border with Egypt.
A source close to Hamas and Islamic Jihad, another Palestinian resistance group, told AFP that both were engaged in “fierce clashes” with Israeli forces near Khan Yunis.
Israel has killed at least 17,700 Palestinians in Gaza, more than half of them women and children, since October 7.
