The death toll of Israel's aerial attacks on the densely-populated Gaza Strip has risen to 39 Palestinians, while 345 others have been wounded as the military aggression entered its fourth day.
A medical source said that medical personnel transferred the bodies of four resistance fighters from Al-Qassam Brigades of Hamas and three others wounded to hospitals following air raids on Saturday on Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza and Tal Sultan neighborhood in Rafah area.
Three Palestinian civilians also died on the same day of serious injuries they sustained in an air raid on houses in Azzuhour neighborhood in Rafah area.
Another air raid today on Khirbat Ads neighborhood north of Rafah also rendered four Palestinians wounded, one of them is in bad condition.
Three other civilians including a woman and a child also suffered injuries when their house was bombed by an Israeli warplane in Assalam neighborhood in Deir Al-Balah district.
In an earlier attack, 30 civilians, mostly women and children, suffered different injuries after an Israeli warplane bombed a house in Jabalya Nazla area to the north of Gaza, and luckily medical and civil defense personnel were able to pull them out from under the rubble.
In another fresh incident on Saturday morning, Israeli warplanes fired five missiles at the international stadium of Palestine west of Gaza city, inflicting considerable damage on its southern side.
For its part, Al-Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, said it fired four rockets dubbed as "107" during the morning hours of today at the Israeli artillery post to the east of the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza.
It also fired one Grad missile at Ashdod city, 12 others at Hatzerim air base in the Negev desert and seven at Tselm military base.
Al-Qassam Brigades also targeted Sderot settlement with five Grad missiles, and Re'eim military post with five mortar shells.
Different resistance groups including the armed wing of Islamic Jihad and Al-Ansar Brigades declared their responsibility for showering Israeli military posts and settlements with Grad missiles and homemade rockets.
The Israeli army, for its part, still refrains from announcing the real number of causalities in its ranks caused by these resistance counterattacks, and claimed on Saturday that only one soldier sustained moderate injuries in a rocket attack on Ashdod city.
