Israeli Forces Escalate Attacks Against Gaza


Israeli occupation forces carried out a number of incursions into the Gaza Strip since Thursday night, killing one person and detaining five others. According to Palestinian security sources, Israeli occupation forces shelled a national security outpost at the entrance of Al-Qararah town today, killing 24 year-old Ramzi Eid and destroying the outpost completely.

In addition, Israeli occupation soldiers opened fire toward hundreds of residents at Al-Qararah military roadblock. Eyewitnesses reported that Israeli occupation soldiers detained a number of the residents after forcing them to undress.

Earlier on Thursday night, the Israeli occupation army's assault on Rafah resulted in killing 45 year-old Sabha Ghanem and injuring at least four other civilians.
