Three more Palestinians have been killed in an Israeli airstrike in Gaza, taking Tuesday’s death toll to nine on the eve of Eid al-Adha holiday amid continued violations of an ongoing ceasefire, medical sources said.
The attacks targeted a residential building containing shops, the roof of another residential building in Gaza City’s busiest commercial area, a civilian vehicle and a gathering of civilians in central and southern Gaza.
In the latest strike, three Palestinians, including a woman, were killed and 20 others injured after Israeli warplanes struck a residential building in the southern Rimal neighbourhood west of Gaza City.
Witnesses said that Israeli warplanes fired several missiles at the building, causing major destruction in the area.
Another five Palestinians were injured in an Israeli strike targeting the roof of a residential building in the Rimal neighbourhood, according to the sources.
