Six Children of Same Palestinian Family Martyred In ‘Israeli’ Airstrike on Gaza

By Staff, Agencies

Six children of a Palestinian family were martyred due to an ‘Israeli’ airstrike against a refugee camp in the besieged Gaza Strip.

In the pre-dawn airstrike by ‘Israeli’ warplanes against al-Shati refugee camp, the six children and at least two members of their family were martyred, according to the Palestinian Maan news agency.

“The airstrike demolished the Palestinian house and further wounded more than 20 others in the camp, which is located in northern Gaza Strip along the Mediterranean Sea coastline,” the agency added.

The development came as the Zionist occupation regime has been pounding the blockaded enclave with repeated airstrikes for the past several days.

At least 133 Palestinians, including 38 children and 20 women, have been martyred and about 1,000 others injured in Gaza in the occupation military’s latest round of aggression that began on Monday.

The United Nation said on Friday that it estimates some 10,000 Palestinians have had to abandon their homes in Gaza “due to the ongoing hostilities” amid a brutal ‘Israeli’ military offensive.
