The Palestinian Foreign Ministry condemned the cold-blooded “massacre” of civilians in the Nablsi Square.

In a press statement, the ministry said the attack was part of the “Israeli” ongoing “genocidal war,” and called on the international community to “urgently intervene” to protect civilians.

Earlier in the day, local media reports said 47 Palestinian martyrs were transferred to al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in central Gaza's Deir el-Balah due to the crimes committed by the “Israeli” military in the besieged territory.

News sources also reported artillery attacks by the “Israeli” forces on a camp in the city of Khan Yunis, as well as the eastern areas of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

The spokesman for the Ministry of Health in Gaza, Ashraf al-Qudra, has also called for “immediate action” by international organizations to prevent the deaths of children due to “malnutrition, dehydration and widespread famine.”
