The Israeli regime continues its bloody onslaught on the Gaza Strip by carrying out more air and artillery strikes against the blockaded territory.
The overnight attacks targeted Gaza City, Rafah as well as Nuseirat refugee camp, leaving nearly a dozen Palestinians, including four children, dead, according to reports published on Saturday morning.
In Bureij refugee camp, Gazaâs civil defense agency said three of its medics were killed by Israeli aircraft and 12 others wounded while they carried out rescue efforts.

Israeli soldiers and tanks attacked Gaza Cityâs Shujayea neighborhood, ordering residents to leave.
UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric said the Israeli ground offensive in Shujayea neighborhood forced the displacement of âat least 60,000â residents.
Resistance forces launched a mortar attack on Israeli forces in the same area, leaving casualties.
Israel launched the war on Gaza on October 7 after the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas waged the surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm against the occupying entity in response to the Israeli regime’s decades-long campaign of bloodletting and devastation against Palestinians.
Since then, the United States has supplied the Tel Aviv regime with more than 10,000 tons of military equipment and used its veto power against all United Nations Security Council resolutions that called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
The Tel Aviv regime has killed at least 37,765 Palestinians and injured over 86,429 since the start of the offensive. Thousands more are also missing and presumed dead under rubble.
