On Saturday, day 393 of the ongoing Israeli genocide of the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, the cutoff of northern Gaza continued for the 27th straight day with no food, water or medicine able to enter, and hospitals with no power and few supplies. Following the two airstrikes on schools sheltering displaced Palestinians Friday evening (which killed over 20 people and injured dozens more), the Israeli assault did not end after midnight, but continued with more airstrikes leading to more casualties.
A number of Palestinians were killed and others were injured Saturday before dawn when the Israeli occupation forces targeted a house in the Nuseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.
Medical sources at Al-Awda Hospital in Al-Nuseirat camp reported that at least three killed Palestinians and a number of injured arrived at the hospital after the Israeli occupation bombed a house belonging to the Al-Assar family north of the camp in the central Gaza Strip.
The Israeli occupation artillery also bombed the western region and the vicinity of Al-Awda Hospital in Al-Nuseirat camp.
In addition, Israeli drones and gunboats opened fire on the Al-Mawasi area, west of Rafah city, in the southern Gaza Strip. The Al-Mawasi area, which did not exist before 6 months ago, was designated by the Israeli military as a so-called “safe zone”. However, it is a tiny area right along the sea, and too many tents are crowded into the small area. The tents are repeatedly being washed into the sea, and the winter rains that have already begun have caused severe flooding and mud throughout the massive refugee camp. In addition, Israeli forces have frequently fired into the camp with gunship and dropped bombs on the tents, causing fires and numerous deaths over the past months.
Some of those who were killed Friday in the massacre of the Abu Nasr family were able to be identified by the Gaza Health Ministry. An estimated 125 bodies remain under the rubble. Here are those who have been identified so far:

Also Saturday morning, Japan’s Ambassador to the State of Palestine, Yoichi Nakashima, said that Japan is studying the possibility of recognizing the Palestinian state in order to achieve peace and stability in the region.
He pointed out that there are attempts to deliver humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip, but Israel prevents its entry, and if some of it is allowed in, it places obstacles in the way of its movement within the Strip.
Israeli occupation forces continue their aggression on the Gaza Strip, by land, sea and air, since October 7, 2023, which resulted in the killing of at least 43 thousand citizens, and the injury of about 102 thousand others, the majority of whom are children and women, in an incomplete toll, as thousands of missing people are still under the rubble, amid the deterioration of the humanitarian situation.
Among the slain Palestinians are at least 17,029 children, 11,585 women, 2,421 elderly people, 177 journalists, 85 emergency responders, 986 medical staff, and 203 UNRWA staff.
The British Lancet Medical Journal and other experts estimate the death toll in Gaza is much higher – and could be above 200,000, when counting both direct and indirect deaths related to the Israeli war on Gaza.
This most recent escalation of Israel’s ongoing military occupation of Palestine began October 7th 2023 when 1,143 Israelis were killed, including 767 civilians and 376 armed soldiers. Around 500 Israeli soldiers have been killed between October 7th and now – both in Gaza and on the Israeli border with Lebanon.
