Gaza city: Palestinian media outlets announced the martyrdom of 18 Palestinians, including 11 in the Tuffah and Zeitoun neighborhoods of Gaza City, since dawn today, as a result of the ongoing military escalation in the region.

According to National Iraqi News Agency, the media outlets confirmed the continuation of airstrikes, with reports of additional injuries and damage to residential properties. They noted that ambulance and rescue teams are continuing their efforts to evacuate those affected and secure the affected areas.

The Israeli army reported earlier that one of its officers sustained critical injuries after being targeted in the northern Gaza Strip overnight, which it considered a “violation of the ceasefire.”
