Israeli strikes left at least thirty dead this weekend in the Gaza Strip, according to a report released on the night of Saturday to Sunday, July 21, by the Civil Defense in Gaza, an organization dependent on Hamas. In the Palestinian enclave, where Israel is besieging some 2.4 million inhabitants, the IDF said on Saturday that it had “Eliminated from terrorists” in strikes and fights.

A strike hit the Nusseirat camp (center), killing two women and a child, said an official at al-Awda hospital. In the same hospital, a baby was rescued from the womb of its mother, also killed in Nusseirat.

The Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas, whose attack on Israel on October 7 triggered the war, saw the strikes on Gaza as a “answer” Israel’s response to the opinion given the day before by the International Court of Justice (ICJ), which ruled “illicit” the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories since 1967. A decision described as“historical” by the Palestinians and “lying” by Israel.
