AhlulBayt News Agency: As the US-backed Israeli genocidal war on the Gaza Strip entered day 214 on Tuesday, aerial and artillery strikes continued to pound and target different areas and massacre more civilians, in the midst of an incursion into Rafah area.
Reporters for the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) said that the Israeli occupation army has taken over the eastern part of Rafah border area under intense gunfire and artillery shelling.
They added that the Israeli army bombed homes, gatherings of displaced civilians and streets during its incursion in Rafah.
According to media sources, casualties were reported when the Israeli army bombed Salahuddin street in Rafah, while many others were evacuated to the Kuwaiti Hospital following attacks on areas around the Rafah border crossing.
Meanwhile, the General Authority for Crossings and Borders in the Gaza Strip has announced a complete halt to passenger and aid traffic into the Gaza Strip.
Earlier, the Israeli army released video footage of the first moments the Rafah crossing was captured by its forces. One of the videos showed a tank arriving at one of the crossing’s buildings.
Dozens of citizens were reportedly martyred and many others were injured last night and on Tuesday morning in Israeli artillery and aerial attacks on homes in eastern Rafah.
The Israeli military incursion into the Rafah crossing area has isolated the Gaza Strip from the rest of the region and will prevent people from leaving or coming into Gaza and stop the flow of humanitarian aid.
