The government media office in Gaza confirmed that a new massacre was carried out by Israel against three convoys in Salah al-Din and al-Rashid Streets at three different times as they attempted to reach the southern parts of the besieged Gaza Strip.
The office emphasized that the initial death toll from the massacre was 70 with the majority of the victims being women and children and more than 200 injuries.
The government office also stressed that this latest crime which resulted in the death of kids women and elderly some of whom had been beheaded confirms that the occupier does not respect international covenants.
