BREAKING
Abu Zaid: I believe that the Iranian operation was multi-layered, combining cyber and electronic attacks with coordinated on-the-ground infiltrations by agents
Abu Zaid: Usually, archives of such sensitivity are typically protected by a full-scale security system, but it appears that Iranian intelligence managed to make use of a gap in it
Strategic military expert Nidal Abu Zaid: Iran has stripped "Israel" of the superiority and deterrence long boasted by its security minister, chief of staff, and other top officials
Fallahpour: Iran may use these documents in its battle with the United States and Western countries over its nuclear program
Fallahpour: Iran may have obtained additional documents related to "Israel's" regional projects, not just its nuclear program
Fallahpour: The coming weeks will be full of surprises, as Iran has forced Israeli intelligence agencies into a state of psychological exhaustion
Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Tehran, Siavash Fallahpour: Iran has redefined the concept of deterrence, shifting it away from traditional military balance toward a new strategic framework
Sources to Al Mayadeen: Number of documents so great that merely studying them, along with accompanying images and footage will require a great deal of time.
Sources to Al Mayadeen: Large data trove was confirmed to have arrived to "safe sites".
Sources to Al Mayadeen: Operation had taken place in past, but large size of documents and need to transfer entire batch inside Iran necessitated secrecy.

The Ministry of Health in Gaza revealed that the ongoing Israeli genocide, on its 77th day, has killed over 20,000 martyrs and wounded 53,320 Palestinians, 70% of whom are women and children.

In just the past 48 hours, the Ministry announced that the Israeli forces, during a media blackout, killed 390 Palestinians and injured 734 others in the Strip.

In Khan Younis, an Israeli airstrike targeted a civilian home, killing six and injuring others. The Nasser Hospital had received several bodies and dozens of injuries on its grounds as a result of the continuous bombardment of residential and civilian areas.

Israeli airstrikes also hit the al-Nuseirat camp, killing several martyrs and injuring others.

In addition, eight martyrs were killed, and several other citizens were injured in an Israeli shelling that targeted two houses in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip. Three of them were in a house belonging to the Duhair family, and they were all transferred to Al-Kuwait Hospital in Rafah.

Rescue and ambulance teams retrieved the bodies of nine martyrs, including a mother and her five daughters, as a result of the shelling of their home. The toll of martyrs in the town and its camp over the past 24 hours has risen to about 30, with dozens more wounded.

The Palestinian Red Crescent reported receiving dozens of calls about the shelling of a house in the Nazzala area in Jabalia, with reports of martyrs and wounded. However, rescue teams were unable to reach them.

The Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Gaza noted that the martyrs' bodies are at risk of decomposing in the streets due to the complete destruction of Jabalia, which renders any sort of mobility from inside it impossible.

Earlier, the Palestinian Red Crescent reported that the Israeli occupation forces are still besieging their Jabalia ambulance center in the northern Gaza Strip, “posing a threat to the safety” of 127 people, including paramedics, volunteers, and their families.

Health hazards on the rise

Meanwhile, all hospitals in the northern Gaza Strip are out of service, with only 9 hospitals out of 36 operating in the southern part of the Strip, according to the World Health Organization.

Furthermore, children in Gaza are at risk of death due to severe malnutrition, starvation, and dehydration. Food rationing has become insignificant, with families being unable to obtain a single meal. Others are resorting to unhealthy and unsafe ways of lighting fires for cooking, increasing the risks of disease. 

The Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor published a new study on Tuesday, revealing distressing levels of starvation in the Palestinian Gaza Strip.

The study revealed that 71% of the Gaza population is grappling with acute hunger, while 98% is dealing with insufficient food intake. Additionally, 64% have turned to eating fruits, wild or raw food, and expired items as a means of alleviating hunger.
