The Israeli army on Wednesday morning killed four more Palestinians in strikes that targeted a home and two tents for displaced people in the Gaza Strip as the genocidal campaign continues.

A medical source told Anadolu that two Palestinians, including a woman, were killed in Israeli strikes on two tents in western Khan Younis city, the southern Gaza Strip.

The source added that two more Palestinians, including a child, were killed in an Israeli airstrike on a home in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.

An injured Palestinian died of the wounds he sustained from a previous Israeli strike, the medical source also said.

Meanwhile, the Israeli army continued its systematic policy of detonating and demolishing residential homes in several areas across Rafah city, according to witnesses.

The Israeli army renewed a deadly assault on Gaza on March 18 and has since killed nearly 1,400 victims, injured more than 3,600 others, and shattered a ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement in the enclave that was signed in January.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed last week to escalate attacks on Gaza as efforts are underway to implement US President Donald Trump's plan to displace Palestinians from the enclave.

More than 50,800 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza in a brutal Israeli onslaught since October 2023, most of them women and children.

The International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants last November for 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 on the enclave.
