据希法医院医护人员称,以色列对加沙城西部一处住宅公寓的空袭已造成至少五人死亡、至少六人重伤。
An Israeli air attack on a residential apartment in western Gaza City has killed at least five people and severely wounded at least six others, according to medical staff at al-Shifa Hospital.
据半岛电视台记者哈尼·阿尔-沙伊尔从汗尤尼斯报道,袭击于周六凌晨击中雷马尔社区的阿萨拉大楼,事发前没有任何预警。
The strike hit the al-Asala building in the Remal neighbourhood early on Saturday without prior warning, according to Al Jazeera’s Hani al-Shaer, reporting from Khan Younis.
雷马尔是加沙城人口最稠密的居住区之一,数千名流离失所者在该社区的临时营地中避难。阿尔-沙伊尔表示,袭击发生在深夜居民熟睡之时。
Remal is one of Gaza City’s most crowded residential areas, home to thousands of displaced people sheltering in makeshift camps across the neighbourhood. Al-Shaer said the attack came in the middle of the night, when residents were asleep.
他说:“我们听到战机轰鸣声越来越近,随后三次打击接连而至,击中公寓并夺走了里面人员的生命。”
“We heard fighter jets getting louder, then three strikes followed, hitting the apartment and killing those inside,” he said.
袭击穿透了目标公寓并贯穿下方楼层,导致整栋多层建筑进一步遭到破坏。大火燃烧了至少一小时,巴勒斯坦民防队员才将其扑灭。
The strike penetrated the targeted apartment and tore through the floors below, causing further destruction throughout the multi-storey building. Fires burned for at least an hour before Palestinian Civil Defence crews managed to put them out.
阿尔-沙伊尔将现场描述为“恐怖”,人们在睡梦中被埋在废墟之下。
Al-Shaer described the scene as “horrific”, with people buried under the rubble as they slept.
他说,民防队员仍在现场搜寻失踪人员和遗体,以色列无人机持续在上空盘旋,战机低空飞越加沙地带的轰鸣声不绝于耳。
Civil defence crews were still searching the site for missing people and bodies, he said, as Israeli drones continued flying over the area and fighter jets were heard flying low across the Strip.
希法医院表示,死者包括四名女性,其中有一名年长的基督教妇女及其女儿。六名伤者被送往希法医院接受治疗。
Al-Shifa Hospital said the dead included four women, among them an elderly Christian woman and her daughter. The six wounded were taken to al-Shifa Hospital for treatment.
