Seven Palestinians were martyred and others wounded today in ongoing Israeli airstrikes across the Gaza Strip, marking the 704th day of the genocidal war waged by the Israeli entity. Field sources reported that five aid seekers were martyred by Israeli occupation forces' fire southwest of Khan Yunis, in the southern Gaza Strip. A Palestinian was also martyred as a result of Israeli artillery shelling targeting firewood collectors north of the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip, while a girl was wounded as a result of the occupation forces firing several shells indiscriminately at the Bureij refugee camp. In Gaza City, Civil Defense reported that more than 25 people were missing under the rubble after Israeli aircraft targeted a family home in the Shati refugee camp, west of the city. Field teams succeeded in rescuing a man and a woman from under the rubble of the targeted house, and recovered the body of only one martyr, while the others remained missing under the rubble. The crews are trying to extract and retrieve them in the absence of the necessary tools and equipment. Israeli drones fired explosive bombs in the vicinity of the Ghazali intersection in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood, northwest of the city, and also fired smoke bombs in the skies over the Tuffah neighborhood. The death toll from the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip since Oct. 7, 2023, has risen to 64,522 martyrs and 163,096 wounded. The Israeli occupation resumed its aggression against the Gaza Strip after violating the nearly two-month-long ceasefire agreement on March 18. The attacks targeted various areas of the Strip, which is already facing an unprecedented humanitarian tragedy after 22 months of war.
