A strike at Khan Yunes, near the Taiba towers
Locally collected information points to the bombing in the al-Mawasi area, west of the city. The ambulance and emergency services in Gaza reported two deaths and wounded. This is in line with that reported by the medical source, but it is not yet possible to establish a precise number of injured persons.
According to a Palestinian news agency’s civil defence statements, his teams recovered the bodies of a man and a woman. They transported them to the Nasser medical complex in Khan Yunes.
The available records do not indicate the possible military target of the bombing. The exact nature of the injuries and the final assessment remain to be established. No Israeli explanation of the strike was identified in the information consulted.
This attack comes as Gaza relief also responds to the consequences of the heavy rains of 7 November. Water has invaded many shelters for internally displaced persons and deteriorated their bedding. The need for accommodation and relief equipment was already significant prior to this weather event.
