At least 67 Palestinians were killed in fresh Israeli airstrikes across the Gaza Strip on Thursday as Tel Aviv’s genocidal war continued unabated on the enclave, medics said.

The Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital said 24 people lost their lives and many others were injured in a strike on a family home in the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza.

Ten people, including women and children, were also killed in two separate airstrikes on two homes in the town of Jabalia in northern Gaza, the official news agency Wafa said, citing medical sources.

Medics retrieved the bodies of three people from the rubble of a destroyed home in the Shejaiya neighborhood in eastern Gaza City.

Israeli strikes also killed 14 people in several parts of Gaza City, medical sources said.

Medics said the bodies of seven people were also transferred to Al-Shifa Hospital after a drone strike targeting civilians in northern Gaza City.

Israeli army forces also opened fire on Palestinians heading to an aid distribution center in the southern city of Khan Younis, killing three and injuring several others, a medical source said

Meanwhile, a man and his pregnant wife were killed as a drone struck a group of civilians in the same city.

The body of a Palestinian was separately removed from the rubble, and another was killed by a strike on a house in the town of Abasan in Khan Younis.

Two people, including a 13-year-old child, were also killed in a strike on a tent for displaced people in the city of Deir al-Balah in central Gaza, according to witnesses.

The Israeli army, rejecting international calls for a ceasefire, has pursued a devastating offensive in Gaza since October 2023, killing over 54,200 Palestinians, most of them women and children. Aid agencies have warned about the risk of famine among the enclave's more than 2 million population.

Last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.

Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war crimes against civilians in the enclave.
