The Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza announced that the occupation forces committed 20 massacres during the past hours, which led to the death of dozens and the injury of hundreds, as a result of the Israeli bombing of the central and southern areas of the Strip.
Tel Aviv Tribune’s correspondent reported that more than 20 martyrs, most of them children, were killed in Israeli raids on homes in the Nuseirat camp in central Gaza, while dozens were missing.
In Bureij, Israeli tanks advanced deep into the center of the Strip after days of relentless bombardment, forcing tens of thousands of already displaced Palestinian families to flee in a new wave of mass exodus.

Pictures spread of Israeli tanks near a mosque in the Bureij area, which is full of buildings, and the tanks appeared to have advanced from orchards on the eastern outskirts of the area.
For its part, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) said in a post on social media platforms: “More than 150,000 people – young children, women carrying children, people with disabilities, and the elderly – in the Gaza Strip have nowhere to go.”
Tens of thousands of displaced people from the areas of Nuseirat, Al-Bureij and Al-Maghazi are heading to the already overcrowded city of Deir Al-Balah, and are crowded into hastily established camps made of temporary tents.
To the south, Tel Aviv Tribune’s correspondent in Gaza reported that 21 Palestinians, including children, were killed and 50 others injured, in an Israeli bombing that targeted a house in Rafah. Medics and residents said that the building that was bombed in the Israeli air strike was housing displaced civilians.
Israeli forces also bombed the area surrounding a hospital in the heart of the city of Khan Yunis, where residents fear a new ground incursion into the lands crowded with families who were displaced during the war that has been going on for 12 weeks.

Almost all of Gaza’s 2.3 million residents were forced to leave their homes, and many were displaced several times. There are only a few hospitals operating with scarce capabilities.
In an infinite toll, the number of victims of the ongoing Israeli aggression against Gaza by land, sea and air since the seventh of last October has risen to more than 21,000 martyrs and about 55,000 injured, in addition to thousands of missing persons, the majority of whom are children and women.
