Gaza rescue crews at dawn on Thursday recovered the bodies of a Palestinians couple from under the rubble of a house, which Israeli forces targeted last night in Sheikh Zayed City in the town of Beit Lahia, in the northern Gaza Strip.
The two Palestinians have been identified as: Abd al-Rahim Muhammad al-Madhoun, and his wife Hajar Ali al-Madhoun, according to Wafa news agency.
The two fatalities raise the death toll of the continuous Israeli onslaught on the Gaza Strip for the fourth consecutive day to 69 Palestinians, including 17 children, 7 women, and 388 wounded, some of them in critical condition.
