At least 12 Palestinians were killed during an Israeli attack on a residential square in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip, according to Palestinian medical sources. The medical sources reported that “the Palestinian civil defence crews transported 12 bodies of Palestinians and dozens of wounded after targeting several homes in the Nuseirat camp, which was crowded with displaced people”. The bodies of the victims arrived in pieces at a local hospital, while the wounded were transferred to the hospital to receive treatment amid great suffering due to the running out of medicines and the limited number of medical staff present in the hospital. The sources added that they are facing “extreme difficulty” in dealing with the large number of victims arriving at hospitals.
The Gaza-based Health Ministry announced that the number of Palestinian deaths as a result of Israeli attacks on the Strip had risen to 29,195 since the outbreak of the Hamas-Israel conflict.
The attack took place on Tuesday, February 21st, in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.
The residential square in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip was the site of the Israeli attack, resulting in the deaths of at least 12 Palestinians and dozens of wounded. The Nuseirat camp was crowded with displaced people, exacerbating the suffering of the victims as the local hospital struggled to cope with the influx of casualties. The ongoing conflict between Hamas and Israel has led to a significant number of Palestinian deaths as a result of Israeli attacks on the Strip. The situation remains tense as medical sources continue to face extreme difficulty in providing treatment to the victims.
