Also in central Gaza Strip, in Deir al-Balah, the bodies of a father and his son, both of them medical doctors were recovered following Israeli airstrike.

Palestinian media have reported Israeli fighter jets “carpet-bombing” the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza, killing and wounding several Palestinians.

An emergency doctor in Jabalia, said intensified Israeli attacks on northern Gaza had put hospitals out of service even as the number of women and child casualties increase.

“Most of the injuries we see today are children and women,” said the Palestinian doctor amid total black out and lack of oxygen for patients.

In a preliminary toll, the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip since October 7th last year has resulted in 34,971 documented Palestinian fatalities, in addition to 78,641 injuries and thousands missing.
