Al Mayadeen’s correspondent in Gaza reported on Sunday morning that “Israel” continues to bombard Gaza, most notably the southern areas of Deir el-Balah in central Gaza, noting several explosions and gunfire in these areas.
Our correspondent added that Israeli shelling targeted several residential homes in Deir el-Balah and bombed a house in the Daraj neighborhood in Gaza, resulting in the deaths of dozens and injuring others. He added that the Israeli airstrikes at the moment are concentrated in central Deir el-Balah and Yafa Street east of Gaza City.
He pointed out that the Israeli occupation forces established a ring of fire around the shelter centers and towers of Sheikh Zayed near the Indonesian Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip.
He also highlighted that intensive Israeli ground and air bombardment had been continuously targeting the eastern areas of the Khan Yunis governorate since this morning.
BOASTING IN ‘ETHNIC CLEANSING’
He mentioned that the Israeli air and ground bombardment is focused on
the northeast of Qarara east of Khan Yunis, leading to the killing of dozens in airstrikes on civilian homes in Rafah, Al-Bureij, and east of Khan Yunis.
Several martyrs and others were injured in an Israeli shelling on a residential house in the Al-Jneina neighborhood east of Rafah in the northern Gaza Strip.
The occupation is deliberately targeting vital sectors in the northern Gaza Strip, including the health sector, in a bid to forcefully displace residents from the north toward the south, and eventually toward Egyptian territories.
This clear attempt at ethnic cleansing has been publicly boasted by Israeli occupation officials, as a pragmatic tactic to ensure the “safety of Palestinians.” However, historical practices have proven that the occupation has disregarded the safety and rights of indigenous people.

The Government Media Office in Gaza sounded the alarm on Saturday on the Israeli aggression on the Strip, warning that the o
ccupation army has been conducting a genocidal war against the Palestinian people for 57 days, characterized by the deliberate and brutal killings of civilians, including children and women.
The government office emphasized that these crimes are carried out with full support and cover from the United States, highlighting Washington’s weapons provisions to the entity since day 1 of the war, which included various types and classes of military hardware, munitions, missiles, and heavy bunker buster bombs with 2,000 pounds of explosive warheads each.
The statement added that since the Israeli refusal to renew the temporary truce, more than 200 Palestinians were killed (as of this morning), bringing the total number of martyrs to 15,207 in 1450 massacres, according to the media office’s numbers, with expectations of a significant increase in martyrs.
