MONITORING (SW) – At least 77 Palestinians were killed and dozens injured in Israeli attacks Monday on many points in the Gaza Strip, according to health sources as it intensified its strikes in Lebanon.
The Israeli army continued its attacks on the northern, southern and central parts of the besieged enclave on the first anniversary of the Israel-Hamas war, reported Hurriyet Daily.
Health sources said three Palestinians were killed in an attack by an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) on a tent near Al-Furqan Mosque in the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza. Five Palestinians were killed and 18 injured in two separate airstrikes on other locations in the camp.
Another 16 Palestinians were killed in separate attacks to the east and west of Khan Younis.
In Rafah city, eight Palestinians were killed in an attack by Israeli warplanes targeting a home in the Miraj area, and one Palestinian was killed in an attack in the Khirbet al-Ades area.
In another front, Lebanon’s National News Agency (NNA) is reporting that Israeli forces launched air attacks in Beirut and across eastern and southern Lebanon this morning.
Israel claimed to have killed the commander of Hezbollah’s headquarters, Suhail Hussein Husseini, in an attack on Beirut on Monday.
Israel intensified its fight with Lebanon’s Hezbollah as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed to press the “sacred mission” against Israel’s enemies, on the first anniversary of the war.
Hamas said it will be a long fight, but Netanyahu said both wars would ensure the violence Israel endured last Oct. 7 could never be repeated.
