Israel attacks on Christmas killed 113 Palestinians

RELIGIONS NEWS AGENCY (REDNA) – At least 95 Palestinians have been killed and dozens injured in Israeli air attack on the Maghazi refugee camp, which a Palestinian Health Ministry spokesperson describes as a “massacre”.

The Muslim News reported Israeli airstrike in Khan Younis in southern Gaza killed eighteen Palestinians. Both attacks took place on eve of and on Christmas.

Large number of Palestinians are buried under the rubble in Maghazi. As the Palestinians do not have any equipment, they use their hands to dig the rubbles.

The increase in indiscriminate bombings are taking place after the UNSC aid resolution was passed without US veto and after UK’s new Foreign Secretary Lord David Cameron’s recommendation to Israel to pursue Hamas in a “much more surgical, clinical, and targeted approach”.

Palestinian Christians have decided to limit their Christmas celebrations to religious rituals due to the ongoing conflict.

Israeli army admits it is fighting a “complex and complicated war” with many soldiers killed. It says at least five dead captives’ bodies retrieved from a tunnel in northern Gaza.

20,424 Palestinians have been killed, including 8,663 children, 6,327 women and 54,036 injured in Israeli indiscriminate attacks since October 7 reports Ministry of Health.

The revised death toll from Hamas’s attack on Israel on October 7 stands at 1,139. 128 Israeli still detained by Hamas in Gaza.
