In another deadly massacre against displaced families during Israel’s genocide, around 25 members of the Dughmush family were killed, after multiple airstrikes flattened a residential block in Al-Sabra area of Southern Gaza City last night, while residents were asleep.

Palestinian doctor Ashraf Mohammad Abu Mohsen, along with his wife and children were also killed in the same strike.

Israel commits another deadly massacre as it makes situation in Gaza City ‘catastrophic’

This attack comes as Fares Afanah, director of emergency and medical services in north Gaza, described the situation in Gaza City as catastrophic on Saturday, saying Israeli occupation forces had bombed four inhabited buildings in the Al-Sabra area without warning, killing at least least 17 people and injuring more than 30.

Ambulance crews transported the victims to Al-Shifa Medical Complex, while many remain missing under the rubble.

Afanah said the military had escalated their attacks in the Al-Sabra, Tel al-Hawa, and Al-Shati neighbourhoods, and emergency teams had worked flat out to evacuate the dead and wounded, despite constant danger.

Israeli occupation forces (IOF) said it is intensifying fighting in the Gaza Strip, with tanks now invading deeper into Gaza City.
