Six killed, including children, and several injured in Israeli airstrikes on Gaza

GAZA, Sunday, August 18, 2024 (WAFA) — Early this morning, four Palestinians were killed and others injured in Israeli airstrikes targeting two residential apartments in the Jabalia refugee camp, located in northern Gaza Strip.

Local sources reported that rescue teams recovered the bodies of four slain individuals, including children and women, from the rubble of the two apartments on Al-Huja Street in the Jabalia camp.

In a separate attack, an Israeli airstrike hit a home belonging to the Musbbeh family in the town of Abasan al-Kabira, east of Khan Younis in southern Gaza, resulting in the murder of a woman and a child, with additional injuries reported.

Furthermore, Israeli aircraft targeted a home in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, while artillery shelling struck an apartment in the Al-Nouri Tower in the northern part of the camp, causing a fire to break out in the apartment.

The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 2023 has so far resulted in 40,074 documented Palestinian fatalities, with over 92,537 others injured.

Thousands of victims are feared trapped under rubble, inaccessible to emergency and civil defense teams due to Israeli attacks.
