 Israeli attacks on Gaza ‘designed to cause maximum damage’

The Israeli army continues to conduct and carry out air strikes that it described as precise, limited to targeted operatives across the Gaza Strip.

But when we look on the ground, how these attacks are being carried out, they are designed to cause maximum damage.

They are not only causing further civilian casualties, but the scale and the extent of damage and destruction and casualties that they cause is very high, contrary to what Israeli statements describe these attacks and overnight attacks.

In the early morning of today’s attack, artillery fired on the eastern part of the Gaza Strip, as well as the western part of Nuseirat refugee camp, where the Israeli military attacks almost on hourly basis right now.

Every once in a while, we hear heavy artilleries, and according to witnesses and the Palestinian Civil Defence, who are prevented from getting anywhere near these bomb sites, they describe the horror of – many of the people are trapped inside the homes that are being targeted.

Many of these homes are already collapsed on people while they are still inside because they could not leave, whether here in Maghazi refugee camp or further western part of Gaza—of the Nuseirat refugee camp, the reports of many people are still trapped and buried under the rubble.

Twelve people have been confirmed killed, according to health officials here at Al-Aqsa Hospital and al-Awda Hospital. Five of them were in a residential home in northern part of the Strip, in Shati refugee camp, that has been bombed relentlessly since week one of this genocidal war.
