As Israel\u2019s aggression expands in the central Gaza Strip, civilian casualties are mounting amid the bombardment of residential homes in Deir el-Balah and the al-Zawaida refugee camp.<\/p>\n
At least 15 civilians were killed in Israeli air attacks on houses sheltering four families on Thursday night. Dozens were injured and others remained under the rubble.<\/p>\n
Sumayya Ahmed, an elderly woman who was in the residential building that came under attack in Deir el-Balah, said her family members were preparing to sleep when the attack occurred at about 10:30pm.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy sister, her husband and children were all killed,\u201d she said. \u201cMany of the other children were stuck under furniture, screaming for help.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cBeneath us are two other families, all gone. Everyone\u2019s gone,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n
Medics were only able to pull out the bodies, and those wounded, in the morning. Ahmed said dozens were sheltering in the building, including relatives and friends displaced from the Sheikh Radwan neighbourhood in the north.<\/p>\n
