According to the Associated Press, the Israeli bombardment of the Gaza Strip has resulted in the death of 13 people, including a child, as confirmed by field doctors from the Gaza Health Ministry. The first victims of the bombings were a man, his wife, and their three-year-old child. They were taken to a nearby hospital, where their bodies were later transferred. The woman sustained serious injuries but managed to save the child. In another bombing, eight children and two women from the same family lost their lives, according to hospital documents.

In Rafah, one person, including a six-year-old child, was killed the previous evening. Despite international pleas for a ceasefire, Israel continues its daily air attacks on Rafah, home to over 2.3 million people. The conflict in the Gaza Strip has caused immense devastation, leading to the loss of over 34,000 Palestinian civilian lives, the destruction of two major cities, and widespread damage across the territory. Experts estimate that approximately 80% of the population has been displaced from their homes due to heavy shelling, resulting in a dire humanitarian crisis.
