The death toll from the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip and the West Bank has risen to 508 martyrs and 2,800 wounded.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health explained, in a press statement, that there have been 493 martyrs and 2,751 wounded in the Gaza Strip so far, including 91 children and 61 women, while the toll in the West Bank governorates reached 15 martyrs, including two children, and about 80 wounded.

On Saturday, Israeli Channel 7 revealed the killing of Nahal Brigade Commander Yonatan Steinberg, during clashes with Palestinian factions near the Kerem Shalom crossing.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Saturday that today is a black day, expressing his readiness to take revenge for this day, adding in an interview: “We will strike the positions of the Palestinian factions until the end.”

Netanyahu called on the citizens of Gaza to leave the Gaza Strip because the Israeli army will strike with full force. Netanyahu warned Hamas against harming the Israeli hostages it is holding, and sent them a message, “I tell Hamas that you are responsible for the health and safety of the hostages.”

Netanyahu stressed, “We are facing this battle together. This war will take time and difficult days await us, but we will prevail.”

Netanyahu also thanked US President Joe Biden for his strong and clear statements.

Tonight, Israeli occupation naval boats bombed the Gaza City seashore with dozens of shells.

The official Palestinian news agency, Wafa, reported that huge explosions occurred as a result of the occupation navy’s bombardment of the Gaza City beach with dozens of rocket shells. This caused panic and fear among Palestinian citizens, especially children and women.

The occupation planes bombed two mosques in the town of Beit Lahia, north of the Gaza Strip, and in Khan Yunis, south of it, and bombed 7 homes in different areas of the Strip, in addition to bombing and destroying the Palestine Tower in the Al-Rimal neighborhood, west of Gaza City, turning it into a pile of rubble.
