The Israeli army launched artillery strikes on the city of Rafah in the south of the Gaza Strip. This is reported by the Qatari Al Jazeera TV channel.
There are still no reports of damage and casualties. As the TV channel notes, in the last 24 hours, the Beit Lahiya refugee camp, located in the north of the enclave, was also subjected to massive attacks, where 112 Palestinians, including 25 children, became victims of two Israeli attacks. 30 people remained under the rubble.
The situation in the Middle East worsened sharply after the infiltration of the militants of the Palestinian radical Hamas movement from the Gaza Strip into the Israeli territory on October 7, 2023, which was accompanied by the killing of residents of border settlements and taking hostages. In response, Israel launched a military operation in Gaza with the aim of destroying the military-political structure of Hamas and freeing all the abductees.
