Israeli Occupation Massacres – Testimonies of the Brutality of the Aggression
The massacres committed by the Israeli occupation against the Palestinian people are not merely numbers; they are painful human stories and innocent lives lost brutally. On this page, we document these massacres to preserve our collective memory and to convey to the world the reality of the oppression and crimes against humanity. We are here to assert that justice remains our demand and that the sacrifices of our martyrs will not be in vain.

Israeli occupation aircraft bombed a house where Al-Fara family had sought refuge in the vicinity of Hamed area in Khan Younis. Following the bombing, Israeli forces opened fire on those who survived. The attack resulted in the martyrdom of five women, a fifteen-year-old boy, and an elderly man. The remaining women sustained serious injuries.

Corpses of Women at Nasser Medical Complex
Five unidentified female bodies were discovered at Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis.

The Elderly Hadia Nassar
An Israeli occupation sniper targeted the elderly Hadia Mohamed Hassan Nassar as she sat in front of her house in the Shujaiya neighborhood of Gaza City, refusing to leave. She believed that her age surpassed that of Israel and that she should remain steadfast in her original land.
Hadia had previously been injured in an attack on a house adjacent to hers in Shujaiya without prior warning. She was subsequently treated at Shifa Medical Complex and had an interview with journalist Saleh Al-Ja’farawi in the hospital.
