    700 Palestinians Killed As Israel Renews Gaza Bombardment

    By EditorDecember 4, 2023
    Gaza 5

    HUNDREDS of Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces in Gaza at the weekend as the Israeli army ordered more areas in and around the enclave’s second-largest city of Khan Younis to evacuate, reports indicate.

    Qatar, with the help of Egypt, had facilitated a four-day ceasefire deal which took effect on November 24 but was extended twice.

    The ceasefire, which was followed by an exchange of hostages, was sequel to weeks of war in the Gaza Strip after Hamas fighters broke through the militarised Gaza border with Israel on October 7 in an attack.

    Before the ceasefire began, Israeli airstrikes and ground invasions had reportedly killed over 14,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and forced about 1.7 million Gazans to flee their homes.

    The Director-General of the Government Media Office in Gaza, Ismail Al-Thawabta, yesterday told Al Jazeera that more than 700 Palestinians had been killed within the last 24 hours; one of the highest daily death tolls since the war began.

    Independence Day

    Intense bombings were reported in Khan Younis, Rafah, and some northern parts targeted by Israel’s air and ground attacks between Saturday and Sunday.

    “Everywhere you turn to, there are children with third-degree burns, shrapnel wounds, brain injuries and broken bones. Mothers crying over children who look like they are hours away from death. It seems like a death zone right now,” James Elder, UNICEF’s global spokesperson, told Al Jazeera.

    Happy Birthday

    An Associated Press journalist reported that the main hospital in Khan Younis received at least three dead and dozens wounded on Sunday morning from an Israeli air raid that hit a residential building in the eastern part of the city.

    Separately, the bodies of 31 people killed in Israeli bombardment across the central areas of the strip were taken to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Gaza’s central city of Deir el-Balah, said Omar al-Darawi, an administrative employee at the hospital.

    In northern Gaza, rescue teams with little equipment reportedly scrambled yesterday to dig through the rubble of buildings in the Jabaliya refugee camp and other neighbourhoods in Gaza City in search of potential survivors and dead bodies.

    In a related development, Israel has detained at least 60 Palestinians in overnight raids in the occupied West Bank, according to the Palestinian Prisoner’s Society.

    The arrests on Saturday night came mostly in the towns of Hebron, Bethlehem, Jericho, Ramallah, Nablus and Jenin. The Palestinian news agency Wafa reported that at least four women were among those arrested.

    The latest arrests add to over 3,000 Palestinians arrested in the West Bank since October 7, according to the UN Human Rights Office. Many prisoners are held without trial or charges, under a system of “administrative detention”.
