According to sources from the emergency and rescue teams in Gaza, 31 bodies have been removed from the rubble, in addition to 20 injured, many of whom were transferred to the Al Aqsa Hospital. This is the new balance of the victims after it was initially reported that the Israeli bombing had caused 20 deaths. According to witnesses, the attack took place in the middle of the night, around 3:00 am (00:00 GMT). The rescue teams admit that more bodies may still be trapped under the rubble. In a video posted on social networks, several bodies can be seen covered with colored blankets and white cloths, as well as doctors from the Palestinian Red Crescent carrying several bodies. "This Israeli airstrike, one of the deadliest in recent weeks, intensifies the humanitarian crisis in Gaza," reported the Palestinian news agency Wafa, since Nuseirat had been designated as a "safe space" for months. Also during the night, several civilians were killed and an undetermined number of people were injured when Israeli warplanes attacked a house belonging to the Shahin family in the north of the city of Gaza, Palestinian sources indicated. In the same area, three other inhabitants of Gaza were killed in the bombing of a school that housed displaced people in the al-Daraj neighborhood. In the north of Gaza, heavy bombing was also recorded, causing deaths, according to Wafa, as well as in the Jabalia refugee camp - where Israel launched a new land and air offensive a week ago that has already destroyed more than 300 houses. Meanwhile, the Israeli army continues to advance from east to west of the city of Rafah, where, according to eyewitnesses, military helicopters attacked the eastern part of the city on Saturday night, while fighter jets bombed the city center. In addition, according to Wafa, Israeli warships also attacked the coastal areas of the Rafah waterfront (extreme south of the Gaza Strip). According to the United Nations, about 800,000 inhabitants of Gaza have already fled Rafah, which was considered the last "safe haven" in the enclave. The Israeli army announced on Saturday night the death of two more soldiers, bringing the total number of military casualties to 282 since the beginning of the ground offensive on October 27. Among the inhabitants of Gaza, more than 35,400 people have been killed in seven and a half months of war, mostly women and children.
