Palestinian Martyrdom Toll from Israeli Occupation Attacks on Gaza Rises to 7

Gaza, Nov 10 (KUNA) -- The health authorities in Gaza announced on Tuesday that the number of Palestinians killed in Israeli occupation attacks on the Strip has risen to seven, including a child. In a statement, the health authorities said that three Palestinians were killed and eight others were injured in an Israeli occupation attack on Al-Maghribi Street in Gaza City. A fourth Palestinian was also killed and two others suffered serious injuries following a severe Israeli air strike on a tent inside the grounds of a school housing a large number of displaced persons in the Tuffah neighborhood in eastern Gaza City. Earlier, authorities reported that two Palestinians, including a child, were killed and others were injured, some in critical condition, after Israeli aircraft targeted the roof of a Waqf building in Gaza City, which had been converted into a shelter for displaced persons due to shelling and forced evacuations by the occupation during the war. This came after a seventh Palestinian was killed on Tuesday morning by Israeli occupation forces’ fire south of Khan Younis city in the southern part of the Strip. In a related development, Israeli occupation forces placed orange floating cubes off the coast of Gaza City and in open waters, in a move similar to the yellow cubes placed east of the city, indicating the imposition of new boundaries and zones that Palestinian fishermen are prohibited from crossing, as part of restrictions on fishing and access to maritime areas off the coast of the Strip.
