The Israeli army continued its assault on the Gaza Strip on the second day of Muslims' major festival Eid al-Adha on Monday, killing a Palestinian child and an elderly man and injuring several others in an airstrike on a home.
The Palestinian Civil Defense said in a statement that its rescue teams "removed two martyrs, a child and an elderly," as well as several injured people, from the rubble of the Muqat family home in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood of Gaza City.
Despite the Eid al-Adha celebrations, Israeli attacks on Gaza continue, preventing people from meeting and greeting, instead focusing on collecting bodies and injured loved ones, with some searching for them under the rubble of destroyed homes.
Israel has faced international condemnation amid its continued brutal offensive on Gaza since an Oct. 7, 2023 attack by Hamas despite a UN Security Council resolution demanding an immediate cease-fire.
More than 37,300 Palestinians have since been killed in Gaza, most of them women and children, and more than 85,000 others injured, according to local health authorities.
Over eight months into the Israeli war, vast tracts of Gaza lay in ruins amid a crippling blockade of food, clean water, and medicine.
Israel stands accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice, whose latest ruling ordered Tel Aviv to immediately halt its operation in Rafah, where over a million Palestinians had sought refuge from the war before it was invaded on May 6.
