Cairo/Gaza: The Israeli army again carried out a fierce airstrike in several areas of Gaza on Tuesday. According to the Israeli army, these attacks were carried out mostly in those parts of the Gaza Strip where Hamas was present. At least 57 people have died in this attack, which was carried out with the intention of uprooting Hamas terrorists. Palestinian health officials have also confirmed the death of at least 57 people in the Israeli bombing in the southern and central areas. This devastating attack by Israel has created havoc in Gaza. Just 3 days ago, the Israeli army carried out a similar fierce airstrike, in which at least 90 people were killed and more than 300 people were injured.
After this attack, the Palestinian Islamic terrorist group Hamas has accused Israel of intensifying attacks in Gaza to try to derail the Arab and United States mediation efforts regarding the ceasefire agreement. Israel says it is trying to root out Hamas fighters. Gaza health officials said five Palestinians were killed in an airstrike on a house in the southern border town of Rafah. Israeli forces have been present in the area since May. They said a man, his wife and two children were killed in nearby Khan Younis.
