In the southern metropolis of Rafah, five civilians were killed and others wounded after an Israeli attack on a home belonging to the Abu Sanjar family.

“Despite Rafah being designated a safe zone, it continues to come under attack,” Al Jazeera criticized.

The killings do not stop, not even for a day, people who are not killed by bombs are likely to die from the dire humanitarian situation, it stressed.

For its part, the Palestine Red Crescent Society denounced that the Israeli army attacked the house of the director of the Central Governorate Ambulance Center, Anwar Abu Houli, in the Al-Maghazi camp.
