TEHRAN (defapress) - WHO (World Health Organization) says the health system in Gaza is near collapse as casualties from an Israeli attack on the al-Mawasi “safe zone” pour into central Gaza’s Al-Aqsa Hospital.

According to media reports, at least 45 Palestinians have been martyred and dozens wounded in separate Israeli strikes on Friday.

One of the residents told a media reporter that two tanks climbed a hilltop overseeing Mawasi and they sent balls of fire that hit the tents of the poor people displaced in the area.

The Palestinian Health Ministry claimed that at least 25 were martyred, and 50 were wounded in the Israeli attack on tents sheltering displaced people in the al-Mawasi area west of Rafah city, which was previously designated a humanitarian safe zone by Israel. More than 20 people were killed in an Israeli attack on the Mawasi camp in late May.
