UPDATE 3 - Children among 36 killed in Gaza as Israeli army continues attacks on 3rd day of Eid Al-Adha

REVISES DEATH TOLL

By Ahmed Asmar

At least 36 Palestinians were killed, including children, and dozens injured as the Israeli army continued its genocidal attacks across the Gaza Strip on the third day of Eid al-Adha, one of Islam's holiest festivals.

Eight people were killed in an Israeli airstrike on a home in the town of Jabalia in the northern Gaza Strip, the official Palestinian news agency WAFA reported.

Earlier, the local Al-Aqsa Radio reported that Israeli strikes on displaced people's homes and tents in Khan Younis killed 10 Palestinians, including children.

In western Rafah, 13 Palestinians were killed as the Israeli army struck them near an aid distribution site of the Israeli-American Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, according to the local broadcaster.

One more Palestinian was killed near another aid distribution site in the Netzarim Corridor area in the central Gaza Strip, the Palestinian broadcaster added.

The Israeli army also killed four Palestinians and wounded others in a drone strike that targeted a group of civilians in Khan Younis.

The army meanwhile continued to blow up homes and buildings in the Jabalia area and eastern Gaza City, according to witnesses.

This marks the fourth Eid for Gazans since October 2023, when Israel launched a genocidal war that killed nearly 54,900 Palestinians, created famine conditions and rendered the enclave uninhabitable.
