Gaza city: The Israeli occupation forces on Thursday separated northern Gaza from the southern part of the strip, opening fire at vehicles carrying Palestinians fleeing the conflict zones. Witnesses reported that military vehicles advanced to Al-Rashid street, which connects the two regions, erecting dirt barricades to restrict movement but allowing some civilians in Gaza City to venture out on foot.
According to Kuwait News Agency, the occupation warplanes have intensified their strikes, accompanied by heavy artillery bombardment across several areas, leading to a rise in casualties among the Palestinians. Local health authorities have confirmed that 77 bodies and 222 injured Gazans were transported to hospitals over the past 24 hours.
The ongoing Israeli aggression, which began in early October 2023, has resulted in a staggering toll of 66,225 martyrs and 168,938 injury cases, marking a significant escalation in the conflict.
