At least seven Palestinians were killed this Tuesday, April 30, in a series of Israeli air strikes against the entire Gaza Strip, the official Palestinian news agency WAFA reported.
The outlet reported on day 207 of the deadly offensive that four civilians were killed and 15 others wounded in a series of Israeli raids on the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.
Israeli forces also attacked the Al Zaytoun neighborhood in southern Gaza City, killing three people and wounding 10 others.
Fresh Israeli raids and shelling were reported in the Jabalia area in the northern Gaza Strip, leaving seven people injured, including three children.
Likewise, rescue teams recovered six decomposing bodies from the Al Amal neighborhood in the western city of Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip, while search efforts continue for others missing under the rubble.

Israel has waged a brutal offensive against the Palestinian enclave since a cross-border attack by the Palestinian group Hamas on October 7 last year, which Tel Aviv said killed nearly 1,200 people.
Since then, nearly 34,500 Palestinians have been killed, mostly women and children, and more than 77,60 injured amid massive destruction and severe shortages of essential items.
More than six months after the start of the Israeli war, vast areas of Gaza lie in ruins and 85% of the enclave’s population was displaced amid a crippling blockade of the entry of food, drinking water and medicine, according to the UN.
Israel is accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice, whose interim ruling in January ordered Tel Aviv to stop genocidal acts and take steps to ensure humanitarian assistance is provided to civilians in Gaza.
