At least 35 killed in Israeli bombing of Rafah refugee camp

Israeli forces struck a tent camp in the Tell es-Sultan area in northwestern Rafah where displaced people were staying, killing at least 35 Palestinians, including women and children, the ministry said.

Al Jazeera TV channel reported that the attack on the Tell es-Sultan area coincided with the bombing of the Jabalia and Nuseirat refugee camps and the city of Gaza.

At least 160 people have been killed in the past 24 hours, it added.

Israel waged a genocidal war on the besieged Gaza on October 7 after the Palestinian Hamas Resistance group carried out a historic operation against the occupying entity in retaliation for the regime’s intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.

Israel has imposed a complete siege on the densely populated territory, cutting off fuel, electricity, food, and water to the more than two million Palestinians living there.
