Israeli airstrikes across Gaza since dawn have killed over 50 Palestinians and wounded dozens more, as the genocide death toll continues to rise.

At least 51 Palestinians were killed in Israeli airstrikes on several areas of the besieged Strip since dawn today, including 27 in Gaza City, Al-Jazeera reported, citing medical sources.

At the Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital, medical staff confirmed that 10 people were killed when Israeli warplanes bombed a house in the Tuffah neighborhood, northeast of Gaza City.

In the Shati refugee camp, west of the city, six Palestinians were killed and others were wounded after an Israeli strike targeted an inhabited house. The victims and wounded were transferred to Al-Shifa Hospital.

Another airstrike hit an apartment housing displaced families in the Al-Rimal neighborhood, killing one person and injuring others. 

Ambulance crews rushed the casualties to Al-Shifa Medical Complex. Al-Shifa Hospital also reported one fatality and several injuries in another bombing on a house in the Shati camp.

In the central Gaza Strip, Al-Awda Hospital announced that nine people were killed and several others wounded in an Israeli attack on a home in the Nuseirat camp.

Meanwhile, Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital reported that one Palestinian was killed and others were injured while waiting for aid near the Netzarim junction. 

In the south, Gaza’s Emergency and Ambulance Service confirmed that Israeli occupation forces opened fire on aid seekers near a distribution center north of Rafah, wounding 10.

Ongoing Genocide

Since reneging on the ceasefire on March 18, Israel has continued its bloody aerial bombardment across the Gaza Strip, killing and wounding thousands of Palestinians.

Starting on October 7, 2023, the Israeli military, with American support, launched a genocidal war against the people of Gaza. This campaign has so far resulted in the deaths of more than 65,500 Palestinians, with more than 167,000 wounded. The vast majority of the population has been displaced, and the destruction of infrastructure is unprecedented since World War II. Thousands of people are still missing.

In addition to the military assault, the Israeli blockade has caused a man-made famine, leading to the deaths of hundreds of Palestinians—mostly children—with hundreds of thousands more at risk.

Despite widespread international condemnation, little has been done to hold Israel accountable. The nation is currently under investigation for genocide by the International Court of Justice, while accused war criminals, including Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, are officially wanted by the International Criminal Court.
