Ramallah, Jan 4. - At least 13 Palestinians were killed and dozens injured today after new Israeli bombings against the Gaza Strip, despite the resumption of contacts to reach a ceasefire.
Al-Aqsa television reported that two citizens lost their lives and several were injured after an air attack against a tent that sheltered displaced people in the center of the city of Khan Yunis.
Another six died in a similar incident that occurred in the same city, located in the south of the Strip.
Two deaths were also reported, including a minor, in an Israeli raid against houses in the nearby area of ??Al-Mawasi.
Meanwhile, in the northern city of Gaza, rescue teams recovered three bodies from the rubble.
There were also reports of several wounded after an aircraft attack against a house in the Al-Shujaiya neighborhood.
The official Wafa news agency said several residential buildings were destroyed in and around the Jabalia refugee camp.
The military operations coincide with the resumption of indirect contacts between Israel and the Islamic Resistance Movement in order to reach a ceasefire that would give relief to the more than two million Palestinians living there. (Text and photo: PL)
