Israel's Attack on Farmers

Israel has intensified its attacks across Gaza, striking areas like Khan Younis’ al-Mawasi camp and az-Zawayda. April 30, 2025 Wednesday’s attacks killed at least 25 Palestinians, including children at a market and six youths torn apart by blasts. Displaced families described yet another night of tents being obliterated: ‘They spare nothing! not children, not even trees.’ Survivors dig through rubble in areas where bombs have repeatedly hit designated shelters, burying neighbors beside fresh craters from earlier strikes. With every so-called ‘Safe Zone’ eventually targeted, 1.9 million displaced Palestinians now move between bomb sites, knowing nowhere is truly safe. As Israel escalates what survivors call a ‘calculated annihilation,’ the World witnesses repeated violations of protected spaces under International Law.

Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud reports from Deir el-Balah, Gaza.

More explosions and air raids have struck residential areas in both the northern and southern parts of the Gaza Strip. Hani Mahmoud reports that three people were killed in a residential neighborhood in Beit Lahiya, while several others with critical injuries were rushed to the nearby Indonesian Hospital for treatment. In the eastern part of Khan Younis, Mahmoud adds, three farmers lost their lives in an Israeli attack earlier this morning. According to eyewitnesses, the men were on their way to tend to their land when a drone strike hit them. They had been working to grow food amid Gaza’s ongoing and severe shortages.
