These attacks marked the deadliest incidents since Israel and the US launched their war against Iran a week ago.

The attacks consisted of an Israeli air strike and tank shelling targeting areas with concentrated civilian presence.

Medics reported the strike hit near crowded tent camps where displaced Gazans were sheltering.

Tank shells struck a camp for displaced families, resulting in multiple casualties including wounded civilians.

Among the victims was Mohammad Hamduna, a paramedic, along with Mohammad Abu Shedeq and Ahmed Lafi.

They were near Al-Azhar University in western Gaza City when killed.

Mohamed Abu Selmia, head of Al Shifa Hospital, confirmed the deaths and provided attack details.

The Israeli military claimed the strike killed two Hamas members.

Independent verification of such claims remains difficult in the ongoing Gaza genocide.

The latest killings continue a devastating pattern of violence despite a U.S.-brokered ceasefire agreement from last October.

Since that supposed truce, the Gaza health ministry documented at least 640 Palestinians killed by Israeli fire.

Israel claims only four of its soldiers have been killed by militants in Gaza during the same period.

This stark asymmetry in casualties underscores the disproportionate nature of Israel's military campaign.

The pattern continues the ongoing Gaza genocide.

Gaza has been devastated by more than two years of Israeli military onslaught.

Over 72,000 Palestinians have been killed according to local health authorities.

Israeli officials claim the war was sparked by Hamas' October 7, 2023 attack.

They claim militants killed 1,200 people and took more than 250 hostages.

The disproportionate death toll and targeting of civilian infrastructure paint a different picture of the conflict's reality.
