GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) – At least seven fishermen were killed and several others injured in an Israeli drone strike near Gaza City beach on Monday, according to a medical source.
The strike targeted the fishermen as they were fishing, the source told Anadolu.
The drone fired a missile into a group of fishermen as they gathered on Gaza City beach, witnesses said.
Israel has continued its brutal offensive on the Gaza Strip following an attack by the Palestinian group Hamas last Oct. 7, despite a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire.
The onslaught has resulted in over 40,400 Palestinian deaths, mostly women and children, and over 93,500 injuries, according to local health authorities.
An ongoing blockade of Gaza has led to severe shortages of food, clean water and medicine, leaving much of the region in ruins.
Israel faces accusations of genocide at the International Court of Justice, which has ordered a halt to military operations in the southern city of Rafah, where over one million Palestinians had sought refuge before the area was invaded on May 6.
