The Quds Brigades said it destroyed an Israeli army vehicle in Gaza City\u2019s Shujaiya, which the Israeli army reentered two days ago.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

6 Apr 2025\u00a0<\/em>– Dozens of Palestinians have been killed in Gaza over the past 24 hours, as the Israeli army continues to relentlessly pound the strip with airstrikes.<\/p>\n

\n

The Health Ministry in Gaza reported<\/a> on 6 April that “26 martyrs and 113 wounded arrived at hospitals in the past 24 hours.”<\/p>\n

Hours earlier, Israeli artillery shelling on tents housing displaced people in Khan Yunis killed at least nine.<\/p>\n

Multiple casualties have also been reported as a result of Israeli shelling on the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood in Gaza City.<\/p>\n

The night before, Palestinian journalist Islam Nasr al-Din Muqdad and her son Adam were killed in an Israeli airstrike as they waited to reunite with her daughter, who was receiving medical treatment in Egypt.<\/p>\n

The attack targeted a home where they were sheltering in Al-Amal neighborhood, west of Khan Yunis.<\/p>\n

As the bombardment continues and Israeli ground troops step up operations, signs of resistance have started to resurface.<\/p>\n

“We destroyed an Israeli military vehicle by detonating a highly explosive \u2018Thaqib\u2019 bomb that we had previously planted on Tariq Bin Ziyad Mosque Street in the Shujaiya neighborhood, east of Gaza City,” the Quds Brigades of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) movement said in a statement on Sunday afternoon.<\/p>\n

The Israeli army announced <\/a>the expansion of its ground operation in the northern Gaza Strip on 4 April, entering the Shujaiya neighborhood.<\/p>\n

Israeli forces have operated several times in the Shujaiya neighborhood throughout the war, but failed to completely root out Hamas\u2019s Qassam Brigades and other resistance groups. Israeli troops took heavy losses in Shujaiya in the summer of last year.<\/p>\n

The army has also recently expanded<\/a> its operations south of the strip.<\/p>\n

Since the war resumed last month, Israeli forces have reoccupied the Netzarim corridor, which they previously withdrew from as part of the ceasefire deal reached in January.<\/p>\n

Tel Aviv also maintains a presence on the vital Philadelphi corridor that lies along the Gaza\u2013Egypt border.<\/p>\n

Israel is now seeking to occupy a new corridor i<\/a>n southern Gaza to cut off the city of Rafah on the Egyptian border from the city of Khan Yunis to its north, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced during a speech on 2 April.<\/p>\n

The Gaza Government Media Office said on Sunday that Israel has completely destroyed over 90% of homes in Rafah Governorate and 85% of its infrastructure.<\/p>\n

According to the Gaza Ministry of Health, over 1,335 Palestinians have been killed since 18 March, when Israel renewed its genocidal war on the strip.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
