Medical sources told Al Jazeera that at least 143 Palestinians have been killed in a wave of Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip since early Thursday. Yesterday, May 15, was Nakba Day. The attacks came on the 77th anniversary of Nakba Day. The day of the great catastrophe that befell the Palestinians 77 years ago. This day marks the ethnic cleansing of Palestine during the establishment of the Israeli state in 1948. In that painful memory, the Israelis have intensified the attacks.
Meanwhile, witnesses to the Israeli attack on a medical clinic in the Jabalia refugee camp on Thursday said that the bodies of patients were torn apart in the attack on the upper floor of the Al-Tawbah clinic. Children were among the 13 people killed.
According to the Gaza Health Ministry, the death toll from the Israeli attack in Gaza has now risen to at least 53,000. In addition, 119,919 people have been injured. However, many people are still missing under the rubble, so the death toll will rise, the Health Ministry said.
Meanwhile, 21 Palestinians have been killed since midnight yesterday, after 143 people. In addition, it is reported that at least three hospitals across Gaza have been temporarily closed due to the barbaric attack by the Israeli forces. Among the hospitals that have been closed are the Al-Awda Hospital in Jabalia, the Indonesian Hospital in Khan Yunis and the European Hospital.
Locals said that the Israeli forces have also carried out indiscriminate airstrikes on residential areas. At least 9 houses in Khan Yunis were attacked without any prior warning.
