Seven other people, all members of the same family, died in an Israeli bombing against a tent in the Nuseirat refugee camp, in the center of the Gaza Strip. According to the Qatari channel Al Jazeera, which cites its correspondents on the ground, among the seven deceased there was at least one little girl. The Wafa agency also recorded seven other deaths in various attacks against Gaza City, in the north, where the bulk of the Israeli attacks have been concentrated in recent days in anticipation of the anticipated ground incursion announced by the Israeli authorities. And in Deir al-Balah, in the center of the territory, another Palestinian died from shots fired by Israeli forces, according to the agency. At least 63,746 Gazans have died and more than 161,000 have been injured in Israeli attacks on Gaza since the offensive began, following Hamas attacks on Israel on October 7, 2023, according to the latest count from the enclave’s health authorities, which does not differentiate between civilians and combatants. Another 367 Palestinians have died from causes related to hunger and malnutrition, including 131 children, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health. Most have been recorded this summer, after months of blockade on the entry of supplies by Israel, which controls all access to the Strip.
