An Israeli army drone strike Thursday evening on the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood, north of Gaza, killed four Palestinian civilians, according to WAFA correspondent.

He reported Palestinian Red Crescent Society (PRCS) paramedics saying that they evacuated the bodies of four victims and a number of casualties after an Israeli army drone targeted a group of people in the vicinity of Omar Mosque in the neighbourhood.

The victims and the casualties were taken to the Arab Ahli Hospital in the city.

Israel has proceeded with its genocidal offensive on the war-torn Strip in complete disregard of the International Court of Justice (ICJ), which ordered Israel in a legally binding decision to halt its military offensive in Rafah, which may violate its obligations under the Genocide Convention.

Israel has been waging a devastating war on Gaza since October 7, killing at least 42,065 Palestinians and injuring over 97,886 others.

Moreover, at least 10,000 people are unaccounted for, presumed dead under the rubble of th
eir homes throughout the Strip.

Palestinian and international organizations say that the majority of those killed and wounded are women and children.

The Israeli aggression has also resulted in the forceful displacement of nearly two million people from all over the Gaza Strip, with the vast majority of the displaced forced into the densely crowded southern city of Rafah near the border with Egypt – in what has become Palestine’s largest mass exodus since the 1948 Nakba.
