Israeli Airstrikes on Gaza Residential Block Kill 33 People

At least 33 people were killed, and more than 84 others were injured or are still missing under the rubble following “barbaric” Israeli airstrikes on a residential block in the al-Nuseirat camp in central Gaza last night.

Gaza’s Government Media Office condemned the Thursday attack as a “barbaric and heinous massacre,” adding that most of the victims were members of the al-Sheikh Ali family according to the Quds News Network.

Most of the victims are women, children, and elders, the office added.

Local sources said Israeli fire struck a postal office in al-Nuseirat sheltering displaced Palestinian families, as well as nearby houses.

Thursday was a bloody day in Gaza, with medical sources confirming that at least 70 people were killed by Israeli strikes, with the majority in the central and southern parts of the besieged enclave.
