At least 51 Palestinians were martyred and dozens injured in an Israeli airstrike targeting civilians waiting for aid east of Khan Younis, in southern Gaza Strip.

The Ministry of Health in Gaza reported that over 50 people were killed and 200 injured, including dozens in critical condition, were brought to Nasser Medical Complex as a result of the massacre. It added that emergency rooms, intensive care units, and operating theaters are experiencing extreme overcrowding due to the large number of casualties.

Meanwhile, several Palestinians were martyred and others wounded in an Israeli strike on a tent sheltering displaced persons in Deir al-Balah, in central Gaza.

In Gaza City, multiple civilians were injured as Israeli warplanes targeted the al-Sabbahni family home in the al-Sabra neighborhood, in the southern part of the city.
