Heavy dark smoke rises over Gaza as regime forces continue attacks against Palestinians
Plumes of heavy dark smoke were seen rising over Gaza's skyline from southern occupied territories on Saturday morning, as the Israeli killing machine proceeds ahead in the besieged strip.
Fierce Israeli tank fire and aerial bombing struck Khan Younis in the Gaza Strip on Friday night, according to the residents, after nearly 200 people were reported killed in 24 hours during the Israeli regime's attacks against Palestinians, raising the overall death toll to 21,507 - about 1 percent of Gaza's population.
Thousands more bodies are feared to be buried in the ruins of neighborhoods.
Israeli forces have been pounding Khan Younis in preparation for an anticipated further advance into the main southern city, swathes of which they captured in early December.
Nearly all of Gaza's 2.3 million people have fled their homes at least once and many are on the move again, often reduced to taking shelter in makeshift tents or huddled under tarpaulins and plastic sheets on open ground.
