'Israeli' airstrikes on Rafah and Khan Younis in southern Gaza have killed at least 23 Palestinians and injured dozens since early Sunday, targeting homes and refugee tents, according to medical sources and eyewitnesses.

A medical source at Gaza’s European Hospital reported that an 'Israeli' airstrike on the Ashour family home in southern Rafah killed eight people. Additionally, two Palestinians were killed in an attack on the Al-Hashash area.

Another airstrike targeted the Al-Fukhari area east of Khan Younis, killing four more victims. The hospital also received multiple injured civilians from attacks on refugee tents and homes across southern Gaza.

At Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, a medical source confirmed that nine people were killed when 'Israeli' forces bombed several homes in the city. Eyewitnesses reported that at least six homes were struck in different areas of Khan Younis.

Since the beginning of 'Israel’s' surprise aerial campaign on Gaza last Tuesday, more than 700 Palestinians have been killed, and over 1,000 injured, breaking a ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement established in January.

Since October 2023, 'Israel's' military onslaught on Gaza has resulted in nearly 50,000 deaths, primarily among women and children, and over 113,000 injuries.
