Bloodbath in Gaza: 40 civilians slaughtered in Israeli airstrike on residential building in Tel al-Zaatar.

Gaza: Israeli occupation forces committed a new massacre on Saturday night in northern Gaza after targeting a residential building in the Tel al-Zaatar area, which was sheltering displaced families. The airstrike resulted in the murder of at least 40 Palestinians, including women and children, with many others still trapped under the rubble. According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, local sources reported that Israeli fighter jets struck the building belonging to the al-Araj family, which was being used to house displaced families. The attack left a large number of people under the debris, making it extremely difficult to rescue them due to the lack of emergency response teams and the extensive destruction. Medical sources reported that over 100 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli airstrikes across Gaza since the early hours of the day. The same sources indicated that dozens of victims remain trapped under the rubble of homes bombarded by Israeli forces in Jabalia and Beit Lahiya, nort h Gaza, over the past two days. Additionally, Israeli occupation forces blew up several residential buildings and homes in Beit Lahiya. Earlier, three Palestinians were killed, and others injured, when Israeli warplanes bombed a house belonging to the al-Batran family near the Italian Complex west of Gaza City. In another airstrike, six Palestinians were killed and others injured when Israeli jets targeted a house in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza. Furthermore, 12 Palestinians were killed, and others injured, when Israeli forces bombed a group of civilians waiting in line for flour in the Qizan al-Najjar area south of Khan Younis, in southern Gaza. The ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 2023 has so far resulted in at least 44,363 documented Palestinian fatalities, with over 105,070 others injured. Thousands of victims are feared trapped under rubble, inaccessible to emergency and civil defense teams due to Israeli attacks. Israel's genocidal attacks continue unabated despite call s from the UN Security Council for an immediate ceasefire and directives from the International Court of Justice urging measures to prevent genocide and alleviate the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza.
