Latest Israeli attack kills 35 in Gaza

At least 35 more Palestinians were killed and 94 injured in an Israeli predawn attack on Nov 23 in the Gaza Strip.

“Israeli forces killed 35 people and injured 94 others in four massacres of families in the last 24 hours,” Gaza’s health ministry said in a statement on Nov 24.

“Many people are still trapped under the rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them,” it added.

The predawn attack on the Basta Al Fawqa neighborhood was unleashed without any advance warning from the Israeli military, according to Lebanon’s National News Agency.

According to the statement, at least 44,211 Palestinians have been killed and around 104,567 others were injured in the ongoing assault since October 7 last year.

An estimated 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led attacks that day, with more than 200 taken captive, according to media reports.

The Israeli army has continued a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip since a Hamas attack last year, despite a United Nations Security Council resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire, the ministry said.

On Nov 21, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice over its brutal war on Gaza.

Pertinently, international recognition of the genocide in Gaza has grown in the second year of the deadly Israeli war, as organizations and leaders have labeled the events as a deliberate attempt to destroy a population.

Meanwhile, Israeli forces on Nov 24 issued new evacuation orders for Gaza City’s Shujayea, prompting hundreds of Palestinians to flee after a day in at least 35 people were killed across the enclave.
