On Sunday, day 387 of the ongoing Israeli genocide directed at the 2.2 million Palestinian people living in the Gaza Strip, as well as continuing the ethnic cleansing of the north of Gaza that has escalated significantly in the past 22 days (since October 5th). The bombing on Sunday afternoon and evening included drone strikes on so-called ‘safe zones’, as well as the bombing of a school housing displaced Palestinians. Israeli forces killed at least 53 people in Gaza and 21 people in Lebanon on Sunday, while United Nations chief Antonio Guterres spoke to reporters expressing shock at the “harrowing levels of death, injury and destruction” in besieged northern Gaza.

Update: 11:59 pm on Sunday October 27, 2024

The 22-day long siege in northern Gaza continues, preventing the 400,000 Palestinian civilians there from receiving water, food and medicine.

Local sources reported that on Sunday evening, the occupation forces detained dozens of Palestinians, including the elderly and children, after forcibly stripping them of their clothes in one of the streets of Jabalia camp. This comes just two days after the Israeli military stripped and force-marched hundreds of hospital employees and patients out of the Kamal Adwan Hospital, then bombed and destroyed a large part of the hospital, killing patients and leaving ICU patients to die.

The Israeli occupation continues the forced evacuation of citizens from the northern Gaza Strip under the pressure of ethnic cleansing that it has been practicing for 23 days, where hundreds of citizens have been killed and dozens are missing under the rubble and no one can reach them.

More than 100,000 citizens in the areas of Jabalia, Beit Hanoun and Beit Lahia are subjected to a siege and continuous bombardment by the occupation, and the killing of anyone who tries to provide services or reach those in need.

Meanwhile, in Tel Aviv, Israel on Sunday, hundreds of Israeli peace activists gathered outside the Rabin Gate of the headquarters of the Israeli military, blocking the gate and calling for an end to the Israeli genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. According to the Israeli paper Ha’aretz, the protest was organized by ‘the Radical Bloc,’ a grassroots organization that opposes the war. The protesters stated: “This is not just a political issue – it is a matter of life and death. We must raise our voices for those who cannot, for the men, women, and children whose lives are being destroyed before our eyes.”

Kamal Adwan Hospital areaA Palestinian was killed and others were injured in the early hours before dawn Sunday, when the Israeli occupation forces bombed Salah al-Din School, which is sheltering displaced people in the vicinity of Palestine Stadium, west of Gaza.

Many Palestinians displaced from the north are being forced into a tent camp located inside the Palestine Stadium west of Gaza.

This is the same stadium where hundreds of Palestinian men and boys were held naked for days in December 2023 by Israeli forces.

It also bears similarity to the first tent camps in Gaza, in 1948, when hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were forcibly expelled for the creation of what is now Israel, many of whom moved to Gaza:

Also Sunday, the Israeli occupation artillery and aircraft bombed several sites in the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

There were at least two injuries as a result of the occupation bombing the top floor of the Za’rab family’s house in Rafah:

 

Also, Israeli occupation vehicles fired gunfire and flares towards the north of the Al-Bureij and Al-Nuseirat camps in the central Gaza Strip.

The Israeli occupation forces have continued their aggression against the Gaza Strip, by land, sea and air, since October 7, 2023, which resulted in the killing of at least 42,924 Palestinians and the injury of 100,833 others, the majority of whom are children and women, in an incomplete toll, as thousands of people are still missing under the rubble.

Video of Kamal Adwan Hospital on October 21, 2024, just two days before the hospital was forcibly taken over by Israeli forces and the staff and patients, including intensive care patients, were forced out.

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.
