Gaza, MINA – Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip have intensified in recent days, with homes, refugee camps, markets, and public roads being targeted almost daily.
As reported by The New Arab on Wednesday, residents and political analysts warn that the expanding Israeli military operation is gradually narrowing the area where Palestinians can defend themselves.
On Tuesday (July 14), the Israeli army killed seven Palestinians, including senior officers and members of Gaza’s Hamas-run police force, when an Israeli drone struck a police post in the al-Falouja area west of Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza.
Local medical sources said the strike also hit a nearby market and tents sheltering displaced families, causing additional civilian casualties.

In a press statement, Gaza’s Interior Ministry said those killed included Mohammed Marwan Salem, director of Jabalia police station, alongside several officers and police personnel.
Gaza’s Health Ministry said around 30 Palestinians, most of them civilians, had been killed over the previous four days in attacks targeting homes, displacement tents and residential neighbourhoods.
According to the ministry, the overall Palestinian death toll since Israel launched its genocidal war in October 2023 has reached at least 73,233, with 173,707 people wounded. []
