Israel has launched a new wave of air strikes through its war planes that targeted areas of the Gaza Strip, including its southern city of Khan Yunis where over two dozen Palestinians have been killed, with reports saying the regime's snipers targeting everyone across the city.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) reported that at least 25 Palestinians were killed by the illegal regime forces in Khan Yunis on Thursday as its lethal ground invasion continues to escalate, forcing tens of thousands to flee.

Israeli snipers have reportedly been stationed in Khan Yunis and are targeting anyone moving there, according to witnesses. Nasser Hospital is receiving a steady stream of casualties, with a significant number of patients in critical condition, as per medical sources.

The Israeli occupation forces also open fired at an ambulance evacuating a wounded person in southern Khan Yunis, where a new ground invasion is expanding, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society.

Thousands continue to flee the ongoing Israeli assault on the southern Gaza city, the PRCS reported.

The occupation army has initiated a fresh ground incursion into the southern Gaza city, resulting in the deaths of at least 129 Gazans within the past two days.

“In the so-called “humanitarian area” in Al-Mawasi (located in the west of Khan Yunis) there is no space even for a single tent due to the overwhelming number of people desperate for safety,” PRCS said in a statement.

It further said that the Israeli occupation is preventing “displaced persons from Gaza and the north from returning from their homes”, as there is “no safe places” left for the displaced individuals.

In Bureij, which is a very active warzone between Hamas fighters and occupying forces, fighting continues to rage.

Hamas has asserted that a Thursday West Bank shooting, which injured three Israeli troopers, is a direct reaction to the continuous acts of genocide in the Gaza Strip and the lethal violence occurring in the occupied West Bank.

The ongoing Israeli genocidal war over the Gaza Strip has so-far led to the martyrdom of almost 40,000 Palestinians, including more than 15,000 children, while injuring more than 90,000 civilians.
