Israeli forces have continued their attacks on Gaza on the second day of Eidul Fitr, killing at least nine Palestinians, including several children.

The attacks have targeted civilian areas, including homes and gatherings, adding to the growing toll of casualties in the region.

According to medical sources, the attacks included airstrikes and artillery shelling across various parts of Gaza.

The Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) reported that 15 emergency workers were found dead, a week after their vehicles were struck by Israeli forces near Rafah in southern Gaza.

Israeli airstrikes on March 29 killed 17 Palestinians, including a child, just ahead of the Eid holiday. Some of the victims included individuals in civilian gatherings and a donkey-drawn cart in the southern Gaza Strip.

This escalation marks the continuation of violence that has significantly worsened the humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes, following the deaths of thousands of Palestinians in the ongoing Israeli military assault.

Meanwhile, in the occupied West Bank, Israeli forces have launched raids in several towns, including Nablus and Qabatiya, conducting searches and interrogations, according to the Wafa news agency.
