Israel continues devastating offensive on Gaza despite UN Security Council resolution demanding immediate cease-fire
Israeli warplanes staged fresh airstrikes across the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, killing at least 13 people and injuring dozens, according to medical sources.
A woman lost her life and several people were injured in Israeli artillery shelling near the Kamal Adwan Hospital in the northern city of Beit Lahia, a medical source said.
Five more people were killed in Israeli bombardment in Zeitoun neighborhood in Gaza City, the source added.
Israeli shelling also killed two more Palestinians in Sheikh Zayed Roundabout in the northern Gaza, while another Palestinian was killed in a drone strike in Jabalia, another medical source said.
The Civil Defense Service said that its medics had recovered the bodies of four people from under the rubble after an Israeli strike on a house in Khirbet Al-Adas north of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.
The Israeli army has continued a devastating offensive on the Gaza Strip since a Hamas attack last year, despite a UN Security Council resolution demanding an immediate cease-fire.
More than 42,700 people have since been killed, mostly women and children, and over 100,300 others injured, according to local health authorities.
The Israeli onslaught on Gaza has displaced almost the territory's entire population amid an ongoing blockade that has led to severe shortages of food, clean water, and medicine.
Israel faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its actions in Gaza.
