As the US-backed Israeli genocidal war on the Gaza Strip entered day 347 on Tuesday, aerial and artillery strikes continued to pound and target different areas and massacre more civilians.

Reporters for the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) said that the Israeli occupation army continued to bomb homes and shelter centers and attack citizens in different areas of Gaza during the past 24 hours.

According to media sources, the Israeli army targeted a bicycle in Qizan Rashwan area in Khan Yunis, south of Gaza, killing one civilian, while two others were injured in other Israeli attacks in the towns of Khuza’a and Abasan al-Kabira, east of Khan Yunis.

Israeli tanks also opened machinegun fire at tents sheltering families in the coastal area of al-Mawasi in Rafah, with no reports about casualties.

In central Gaza, Israeli drones opened fire at paramedics as they were trying to find and evacuate victims following Israeli attacks on several homes in al-Bureij refugee camp.

The civil defense service said its crews recovered bodies of four martyrs, including a girl child, from the bombed homes in the east of al-Bureij camp, adding that dozens of other citizens were still under the rubble.

The civil defense said that a brutal massacre happened in Block 12 of al-Bureij camp following intensive aerial attacks.

Three other people, including a child and a woman, were martyred and others were injured in an Israeli airstrike on a house belonging to the family of ash-Shami in al-Sabra neighborhood, south of Gaza City.

More casualties were reported in other areas of Gaza following Israeli aerial, artillery and shooting attacks last night and today.
