Rafah: Israeli occupying forces killed at least eight Palestinians and injured over 61 others in renewed massacres in Rafah City in the southern Gaza Strip on Friday. The victims were targeted while trying to reach recently established humanitarian aid sites in western Rafah on the first day of Eid Al-Adha, the Gaza information office said in a press release.
According to Kuwait News Agency, the figures have taken the total numbers of Palestinians killed or injured since Israeli occupation-US aid sites were launched on May 27 up to 110 and 583, respectively, in addition to nine persons who went missing. Over the past days, there have been a series of deadly incidents on the route to aid distribution sites in Gaza, which are run by controversial groups backed by the U.S, and Israeli occupation.
Israeli occupying forces have waged a military onslaught on the Gaza Strip since October 2023, resulting in the death of at least 54,677 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injuring 125,530 others. Palestinian ambulances and medics cannot reach many martyrs who are still under the rubble of destroyed homes and facilities due to limited necessary resources.
