Violent Israeli raid that targeted a building southeast of Gaza City resulted in dozens of casualties. Most of them from committees of notables and tribes who were holding a meeting to coordinate the receipt of aid and its distribution to the besieged residents of the Gaza Strip.

Observers believe that these systematic assassinations confirm that Israel is keen to perpetuate chaos and fight all attempts to regulate people’s lives in the Gaza strip, in addition to the attempts of the Israeli occupation authorities to create an alternative entity to the Hamas movement.
