Gaza – Ma’an – Israeli warplanes killed three Palestinian civilians on Wednesday afternoon during what Israel had earlier declared to be a unilateral three hour halt in its attacks on Gaza.
Israel had announced that it would halt attacks between one and four on Wednesday afternoon to allow the delivery of humanitarian aid.
Medics at Kamal Udwan Hospital confirmed that three sisters were killed by Israeli fire in the east of Jabaliya Refugee Camp. Their names were Amal, Su’ad and Samar Abed Rabbo. Others were injured in the attack.
Medical officials report that 688 Gazans have been killed since the Israeli war on Gaza began 12 days ago. More than 3,000 have been injured.
Jabaliya was the location of an Israeli artillery attack on Tuesday that killed 45 Palestinians who had taken shelter in a UN school.
Meanwhile, Red Cross teams managed to enter the Zaytoun neighborhood of southern Gaza City, which has witnessed intense fighting in the last 24 hours. Rescue workers removed two more bodies from the rubble of a house destroyed by Israeli warplanes, where more than 20 members of the same were feared dead. The removal of these bodies means 10 members of the Samuni family have been confirmed killed.
The Israeli warplanes also targeted a house related to Abu Muhadi family in An-Nuseirat, in the central Gaza Stripm and four other houses at the borders in the southern city of Rafah, killing an elderly man.
