GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) – Two Palestinians were killed in a fresh Israeli airstrike in the Gaza Strip on Tuesday, according to the Health Ministry.
A ministry statement said that two other Palestinians were injured in the attack.
According to witnesses, the airstrike targeted a car in the town of al-Qarara, east of Khan Younis in southern Gaza.
The new deaths bring to 15 the number of Palestinians killed in Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip on Tuesday. Four children and four women were among the fatalities.
Palestinian factions in Gaza have vowed to retaliate against the Israeli airstrikes that killed three top military commanders from the Islamic Jihad group.
Several countries and regional bodies have condemned the Israeli airstrikes on Gaza, including Jordan, Egypt, Qatar, Türkiye, the Arab League and the Organization of Islamic Cooperation.
