Dutzende Tote durch Israels neue Offensive auf Khan Younis

July 23, 2024 - Mindestens 70 Palästinenser wurden getötet laut dem Hamas Gesundheitsministerium, nachdem Israeli Truppen eine neue Bodenoffensive rund um die Stadt Khan Younis begonnen haben.

The Palestinians were killed by tank salvoes in the town of Bani Suhaila and other towns fringing the eastern side of Khan Younis, with the area also bombarded from the air, Gaza medics said.

The Israeli military said in a statement evacuation orders to the population in eastern Khan Younis resulted from intelligence information indicating militants were firing rockets from those areas and Hamas was attempting to regroup.

Around 400,000 people were living in the targeted areas and dozens of families had begun to leave their houses, Palestinian officials said, adding they were not given time to get out of harm's way before the Israeli strikes began, according to Reuters.
