AL-BREIJ, (PIC)– The Israeli occupation has committed a new massacre in the Gaza Strip on Friday evening when US-supplied F-16’s bombed the house of Ayman al-Fayed, a commander in the Quds Brigades, the armed wing of the Islamic Jihad in the Breij refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.

The attack resulted in the total destruction of the house of al-Fayed as well as neighbouring houses in this crowded area of the Breij refugee camp.

The PIC correspondent was informed that commander Ayman al-Fayed (42 years) was martyred in the attack along with his wife Marwah Azzam, and their two children Ayoub and Basma.

Medical sources also informed our correspondent that the Aqsa Martyrs Hospital could not receive all the wounded and many of them had to be taken to Nasr and Shifa hospitals.

Dr. Muaweyah Hasaneen, the general director of emergency department at the Palestinian ministry of health stated that eight Palestinians were killed and 60 were wounded in the attack, at least 10 of them in a critical condition.
The sound of the huge explosion was heard many miles away and smoke was seen rising from the scene of the attack. This attack brought back to memory a similar attack when Israeli occupation airforce bombed a block of flats to kill Sheikh Salah Shehada, the general commander of the Qassam Brigades, five years ago killing 15 Palestinians many of them children.
