Israeli Airstrikes Kill Dozens in Gaza Displaced Camp
At Least 35 Palestinians Killed, Many Wounded
Gaza Health Ministry Reports Devastating Strike on Designated Displacement Area
Jerusalem, Israel - Israeli air strikes have killed at least 35 Palestinians and wounded dozens in an area in the southern Gaza Strip city of Rafah designated for the displaced. The attack, which took place on Sunday, has sparked international condemnation and calls for an immediate ceasefire.
According to the Gaza health ministry, the Israeli airstrike targeted a camp for displaced people in Rafah, resulting in the deaths of at least 35 individuals. The attack also left dozens of others injured, with many in critical condition.
After sunrise, survivors of the attack returned to the camp to assess the damage. Eyewitnesses described scenes of devastation, with tents and shelters reduced to rubble. The United Nations has condemned the attack, calling it a "flagrant violation of international law."
The Israeli government has defended its actions, claiming that the airstrikes were necessary to target Hamas militants. However, critics argue that the attack has caused disproportionate civilian casualties and violated the rights of innocent Palestinians.
The airstrikes come amid escalating tensions between Israel and Hamas, the militant group that controls the Gaza Strip. The conflict has been ongoing for decades, with frequent flare-ups of violence. The international community has repeatedly called for a peaceful resolution to the conflict, but a lasting solution remains elusive.
