Massacre in Gaza: 10 martyrs and 15 wounded in Israeli occupation shelling of the Municipal Police headquarters - Sarmad

On Wednesday, occupation forces committed a horrific massacre against members and officers of the police in Gaza, after warplanes bombed a police headquarters in the city center.

The airstrike killed nine Palestinians and injured approximately 15 others, including several with serious and moderate injuries. Additionally, a Palestinian was killed in an attack targeting a motorcycle southwest of the Nuseirat camp, and two Palestinians were shot by occupation forces in the city of Beit Lahiya in the northern part of the Strip.

Medical sources at Al-Shifa Hospital told local media that most of the victims arrived in charred and fragmented pieces due to the intensity of the bombing and the resulting explosion.

In a statement, Hamas described the “horrific massacre” carried out by the “criminal occupation army” that afternoon, when it targeted the police headquarters in Gaza City, killing nine martyrs, most of whom were police officers and personnel, as a new Zionist war crime.

The group stated that the occupation army’s claims of targeting resistance leaders were baseless and false allegations designed to justify its aggression and cover up its deliberate targeting of civilian police and unarmed citizens in the Gaza Strip.

Hamas further noted that the timing of this massacre, following recent meetings and communications with mediators and guarantors, as well as meetings with U.S. envoy Jared Kushner, which involved efforts to push forward the implementation of the agreement and complete the roadmap, confirms that the Netanyahu government is deliberately undermining these efforts.
