Scores of Palestinian civilians, including women and children, have been killed and others wounded over the last 24 hours as the ongoing Israeli campaign on the Gaza Strip enters its 101st day.
The official Palestinian news agency WAFA reported that at least 33 Palestinians, including children and women, were killed, and dozens were wounded, in an Israeli airstrike that targeted several residential buildings in the Gaza enclave.
Israeli warplanes reportedly carried out intense and fierce airstrikes targeting several areas in Khan Yunis, in the south of the Gaza Strip, as well as in Bureij and Al-Maghazi camps, in the central Strip.
For the fourth day in a row, the complete interruption of communications and Internet services in the Gaza Strip continues as a result of the ongoing aggression.
The communications sector suffers from constant targeting, as the extent of the destruction has reached more than 80 percent.
Technical crews are being directly targeted while carrying out their work, despite prior coordination through international institutions.
