Israeli occupation forces (IOF) killed three Palestinians and wounded 20 others since the start of the current month of November in Gaza Strip, Adham Abu Salmiya told the PIC.

Abu Salmiya, the coordinator of medical services in the Strip, said on Friday that the figures point to a "serious escalation" on the part of the IOF.

He recalled that IOF warplanes shelled two homes in Khan Younis and Deir Al-Balah in addition to two cars in Gaza city other than daily targeting of gravel collecting workers in east and north of the Strip.

Abu Salmiya asked the world community to bridle the Israeli aggression against civilians and to apply the international laws that prohibit the targeting of civilians.

In another development, IOF troops rounded up four Palestinians in Madma village, south of Nablus, at dawn Saturday after searching their homes, locals said.

IOF soldiers had stormed the village on Wednesday and imposed a curfew after claiming a firebomb was thrown from the village at an IOF vehicle.
