The occupation tanks and vehicles fired shells and gunfire intensively in the Saftawi area, north of Gaza City.

Local sources said that the medical teams are still inside the Martyr Kamal Adwan Hospital, and the occupation army is besieging them and preventing them from contacting and communicating with the outside world.

The Palestinian Civil Defense also said that the Israeli army destroyed its remaining vehicles in Beit Lahia, in northern Gaza.

It added that the Israeli army continues its deadly siege and extensive bombing of northern Gaza, adding that all areas where displaced families are sheltering are isolated in Jabalia and Beit Lahia.

The Palestinian Civil Defense denounced the silence and complicity of many Western countries and even some international human rights groups.

Medical sources at the Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahia stated that many wounded children have died after the army bombarded the main Hyperbaric Oxygen Chamber of the medical facility, which remains surrounded and isolated.

Shortly after attacking the hospital, the army invaded it forced wounded Palestinians, patients, and their families into the hospital’s main yard, and started separating the men from the women.

The hospital’s director said many patients’ windows were damaged due to the Israeli bombing and added that there are more than fifteen patients who need surgeries, but the hospital is unable to perform them due to the siege, the bombing, and the lack of medical supplies.

He added that many Palestinians, including medical staff, were injured in the Israeli attack on the hospital.

Furthermore, twenty-five Palestinians were killed, and many were injured, in Israeli bombing of two homes in Beit Lahia.

On Thursday evening, the Israeli army surrounded the hospital before the military vehicles opened fire on the hospital with sick children inside.

The Civil Defense spokesperson said more than 150 patients and staff remain surrounded and isolated in the hospital.

In addition, the Israeli army fired barrages of heavy live fire at displaced Palestinians in the western area of the Jabalia refugee camp, in northern Gaza.

The army also fired shells followed by bursts of live rounds at Palestinian homes in the western part of the Jabalia refugee camp.

It is worth mentioning that, on October 6, the Israeli army began a new offensive on Jabalia and other parts of northern Gaza, alleging that it wants to prevent Hamas from rebuilding its capabilities there. The Israeli attacks since then have led to hundreds of casualties among the Palestinians, the majority of whom are civilians, largely children and women.

In Khan Younis, in the southern part of the Gaza Strip, the army fired a missile at a home for the Al-Farra family in the Al-Manara area, south of the city, killing 28 Palestinians, the majority of whom are children and women, and wounding dozens of citizens.

 

The Palestinian Civil Defense stated that its teams are still evacuating slain and wounded Palestinians and added that at least twenty Palestinians remain under the rubble while the efforts continue to locate them.

Also, two women and one man from the same family were killed and at least seven were injured when the Israeli army fired a missile at their tent, southwest of Khan Younis.

The Israeli army also fired a missile at the Al-Farouq Mosque, for the second time, in the Qizan Najjar area, south of Khan Younis.

In Rafah, in Gaza’s southernmost part, the army wired and detonated and bombarded entire residential blocks in the Tal Al-Sultan and the Saudi neighborhood, west of the city, in addition to the Shaboura refugee camp, in its center.

Israel has now killed at least 42,847, including 17,029 children, 11,585 women, 986 medical staff, 85 Civil Defense personnel, 177 journalists, 203 UN staff, and 496 educational staff, and injured more than 100,544, the majority of whom are children and women, in addition to more than 10,000 Palestinians who remain under bombarded homes, alleys, and destroyed streets, in various parts of the devastated coastal enclave, since October 7, 2023.
