The Israel Defense Forces announced that it had attacked 200 sites. The Ministry of Health has confirmed 109 deaths till evening. About 70 people in Gaza were killed within the first hour of the attack. Hundreds of people were injured.
The attack took place in crowded places like refugee camps, residential complexes and schools. Heavy bombing took place in Khan Younis and Rafah in Gaza. The Israeli army had also distributed leaflets asking the people to evacuate by publishing the route map for the people to escape.
The incident took place in southern Gaza.
Most of those killed in Friday’s attack had fled to southern Gaza from northern Gaza before the cease-fire. This exodus was as instructed by Israel. The Gaza Health Ministry has asked Egypt to open the Rafah border. This happened in the context of Israel’s offensive in the southern region as well.
