Al Mayadeen’s correspondent reported that “Israel” bombed a building holding AFP and several other press bureaus in Hajji Tower west of Gaza City. 

Our correspondent also noted that 13 people were killed in an airstrike on a residence west of Khan Yunis city in the southern region of the Gaza Strip, highlighting that the Israeli airstrikes are intensely focusing on various areas in the northern part of the Strip. He also noted that 17 Palestinians were killed, and 45 others sustained injuries due to the non-stop Israeli airstrikes.

Kidney dialysis patients are also at an increased risk due to the Israeli occupation's bombings in the vicinity of the Indonesian hospital.

The Israeli airstrikes also targeted several houses in the center of Gaza City. Additionally, Israeli helicopters fired their heavy machine guns along Rashid Street, across from Tal Al-Hawa. Concurrently, Israeli artillery shelling aimed at the eastern part of the Bureij Camp in central Gaza, as per our reporter.

Four martyrs and several injuries have arrived at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital after residential buildings in the Nuseirat Camp in central Gaza were bombed by Israeli warplanes.

The humanitarian situation is precarious

Suhair Zaqout, the spokesperson for the International Committee of the Red Cross in the Gaza Strip, described the situation as "catastrophic," emphasizing the need to "lift the blockade on Gaza."

Zaqout affirmed that all possible efforts are being exerted to reach those affected and to supply hospitals with medical essentials and water purification tablets. Additionally, she noted that the Red Cross surgical team has initiated surgical procedures in the hospitals, highlighting their dedication to saving citizens' lives and supporting the Red Crescent in their work.

In short, hundreds of Palestinians have been killed every day and night since the bombing began, overwhelming hospitals, which are now in a state of collapse due to the total blockade imposed by "Israel". Electricity, clean water, and fuel have all run out, and there are no medical supplies or lifesaving treatments. At least 15 hospitals and medical centers have been forced to stop operating, meaning that patients have to be transferred to the remaining hospitals, which are already overcrowded.

It is worth noting that the Palestinian Health Ministry reported on Friday that the number of martyrs since October 7 has risen to 9,227, including 3,826 children and 2,405 women, whie the number of injured has risen to 23,516.
