Mueren decenas en nueva ofensiva israelí contra Jan Yunis
July 23, 2024 - Por lo menos 70 palestinos murieron, según el ministerio de salud de Gaza, cuando las fuerzas israelíes lanzaron una nueva operación terrestre en la ciudad sureña de Jan Yunis.
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.
