Israeli occupation forces at dawn today committed a new massacre after launching an airstrike on displaced people’s tents in Mawasi Khan Yunis, southwest of the Gaza Strip, reported the Palestine News and Info Agency (Wafa).
The massacre, which took place near the British Hospital at the entrance to the Mawasi area, resulted in the killing and injury of dozens of civilians, including a large number of children and women, while a large number of citizens are still missing.
Medics said 40 slain people and 60 wounded were recovered after three hours of recovery operations.
The Civil Defence said, “We are facing one of the most heinous massacres since the beginning of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, and entire families disappeared in the sand due to the concussion missiles.”
According to the press and local reports, five missiles were used in the attack, causing complete destruction to the tents and affecting up to nine metres into the ground, which made it more difficult for rescue and medical teams to reach the victims.
The area is seeing chaos, with an intense presence of Israeli reconnaissance aircraft flying over the site, amid a complete power outage and fires resulting from the bombing.
Eyewitnesses and paramedics from the Palestinian Red Crescent said medical teams are facing major challenges in retrieving bodies and the injured due to the massive destruction and deep holes.
They also added that a large number of ambulances transported the slain people and the injured to field hospitals and nearby medical centres, while rescue teams continued to search for the missing.
This bombing comes amid the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, which has been subjected to intensive raids by the occupation army since Oct 7, as catastrophic humanitarian conditions persist.
