Seven Palestinians killed in Gaza, nine bodies recovered from rubble

Gaza’s Ministry of Health announced that nine additional bodies have been recovered from beneath the rubble of a recently destroyed residential building. The recovery follows a series of airstrikes that targeted the densely populated neighborhood earlier this week, intensifying the humanitarian crisis in the enclave.

Health officials said the bodies were retrieved by rescue teams working amid ongoing damage to infrastructure and limited access to medical supplies. The ministry’s latest figures bring the death toll in the area to several hundred, underscoring the scale of civilian casualties and the challenges faced by emergency responders in the aftermath of the attacks.
