Amid the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas, the Israeli army has once again carried out a major air strike on the Southern Gaza Strip. In this latest attack, the Displaced Persons Camps near the Kuwait Hospital in the west of Khan Younis, located in the south of the Gaza Strip, were targeted. At least 5 people have died in this attack. Among the dead are women, men and children.
Attack and damage
According to initial reports, at least 5 people have died in this attack. Among the dead are women, men and children. Israel carried out an aerial attack on the tents made for the displaced. After the bombardment, a fierce fire broke out in the camps, causing chaos among the displaced people who were already living in difficult conditions.
The reason for the attack
Israel has claimed that this attack was carried out in response to the recent attacks on Rafah. Rafah, which is adjacent to the border with Egypt, is already home to millions of displaced people. This fresh attack has once again raised serious concerns for the safety of the displaced civilians who have already left their homes and are looking for safer places.
