Israeli forces have killed 17 Palestinians in Gaza since Thursday morning

At least 17 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces in the Gaza Strip since Thursday morning, medical sources have confirmed to Al Jazeera Arabic.

The deaths mark yet another deadly day in Israel’s months-long assault on the besieged enclave, where air and ground attacks have devastated entire neighbourhoods and displaced hundreds of thousands.

Hospitals, already on the brink of collapse, continue to struggle under the weight of mounting casualties and dwindling supplies.
