Overnight Zionist airstrikes kill dozens in Gaza

TEHRAN, Oct. 27 (MNA) – Israeli air strikes on Gaza have killed dozens of people overnight, according to Palestinian medical sources and media.

At least 15 people were killed in air raids on the city of Khan Younis, southern Gaza, a medical source told Al Jazeera early on Friday.

The Palestinian news agency WAFA reported that journalist Yasser Abu Namous and his mother were among those killed in the pre-dawn strikes.

At least 30 others were killed in attacks across the enclave.

At least 10 people were killed in a strike on a four-story house in the al-Zaytoun neighborhood, southeast of Gaza City, while eight others were killed in air raids on Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza.

Another 12 people, including a child, were killed in an Israeli strike in Rafah.

Al Jazeera could not independently confirm the latest casualty figures.

Four people were also killed after Zionist forces carried out a pre-dawn attack in the occupied West Bank, Palestinian sources told Al Jazeera.

Al Jazeera’s Nida Ibrahim, who is reporting from Ramallah, said that one of those killed was a member of the armed group, the Jenin Battalion.

More than 7,000 Palestinians, including nearly 3,000 children, have been killed in Gaza since the Israeli regime launched its war on Hamas, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.

Gaza’s health ministry on Thursday released a list of more than 7,000 names that were paired with government identification numbers to support its accuracy.
