At least 8 Israeli settlers have been killed and 20 injured in a major shooting operation by Palestinian fighters in Tel Aviv.

A group of gunmen opened fire in Israel’s commercial capital on the boundary with Jaffa on Tuesday evening.

Israel’s MDA ambulance service said it received a report at 1601 GMT of people injured by gunfire.

TV footage showed gunmen getting off at a light rail station and opening fire.

The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas and other Resistance groups say such attacks are the "natural response" to Israel’s barbarism in Gaza.

The regime continues with its attacks on Gaza and airstrikes on Lebanon, claiming the lives of more civilians.

In one of the latest attacks, at least 7 people were killed in Israeli bombing of a school housing the displaced Palestinians in Gaza’s al-Tuffah neighborhood.

In a separate attack, Israeli warplanes struck a Palestinian home in the al-Zaytoun neighborhood, killing and injuring several people.

At least 13 others were killed in an Israeli pre-dawn attack on the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza. The regime’s artillery also shelled a number of areas in Gaza, including al-Zaytoun and al-Sabra neighborhoods.

Israel has killed more than 41,600 Palestinians in Gaza since October 2023.
