Twenty-Six Martyred Tens Wounded on 7th Day of Israeli Aggression on Gaza Strip

 The number of martyrs killed on the seventh consecutive day of the Israeli aggression on Gaza Strip reached 26 martyrs along with more than ten wounded, raising the death toll of the methodical Israeli aggression to more than 140 martyrs and around 950 wounded, according to Palestinian Representative to the UN, Riyad Mansour.
The 26 martyrs, some of them children, were killed as Israeli occupation forces intensified their air raids against residential areas across the Strip, with raids beginning at dawn of Tuesday.
Two journalists, Mohammad al-Komi and Hussam Salameh, were among the martyred when Israeli raids targeted a press car belonging to the Palestinian satellite channel Al-Aqsa.
The Palestinian Resistance continued to retaliate against the Israeli murder machine, launching rockets at Israeli occupation settlements and sites within the Palestinian territories occupied in 1948.
Since the beginning of the Israeli aggression on Gaza last Wednesday, the Palestinian Resistance fired more than 1039 rockets at Israeli occupation sites, with the Israeli occupation acknowledging that 1209 rockets and mortar shells were fired at its sites.
The Palestinian Resistance rejected the Israeli suggestions for a ceasefire, but appeasement efforts are still underway, as the Palestinians seek a full and immediate ceasefire while the Israeli occupation wants to carry it out in two stages.
