Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported Thursday evening that several Palestinians were martyred and a large number were injured in an Israeli shelling that targeted people awaiting aid near Kuwait Roundabout southeast of Gaza City.

The Health Ministry in Gaza confirmed that more than 200 Palestinians were killed and injured as a result of the Israeli shelling.

The Ministry mentioned that 20 martyrs and 155 injuries had arrived at the al-Shifa Medical Complex, while one martyr and six injuries arrived at Kamal Adwan Hospital.

It pointed out that the process of retrieving the bodies of other martyrs and evacuating the wounded is ongoing despite the difficult field situation at the location of the massacre, anticipating an increase in the number of martyrs due to the severity of the injuries reaching Gaza hospitals.

The Ministry indicated that what happened at Kuwait Roundabout indicates a malicious intent by the Israeli occupation to commit a new horrifying massacre.

It also emphasized that the medical teams are unable to handle the volume and severity of injuries reaching hospitals in northern Gaza due to the weakness of medical resources.

On his part, the spokesperson for Civil Defense in Gaza, Mahmoud Basal, told Al Mayadeen that Israeli military helicopters opened fire on civilians before Israeli artillery finalized the massacre at Kuwait Roundabout.

He noted that Israeli artillery shelled civilians after they took shelter in buildings following the helicopter attack, adding that a large number of Palestinians were martyred and wounded and that the situation is catastrophic.

The spokesperson stressed that many are dying in hospitals due to their severe wounds and the medical teams' inability to handle all injuries.

On early Thursday, Israeli occupation forces also opened fire on a gathering of Palestinians at Kuwait Roundabout, resulting in the martyrdom of seven people.

Various Palestinian factions condemned the new Israeli massacre at Kuwait Roundabout.

In a statement, Hamas said the crime adds to the series of massacres and vicious targeting of civilians facing Israeli starvation policies.

The movement stressed that the international community and the United Nations have failed to take action against the Israeli occupation army, which serves as a green light for committing more heinous crimes, within the framework of genocide and ethnic cleansing against the Palestinian people.

It pointed out that the Israeli crimes come with full support from the Biden administration, which protects the criminal entity from any international accountability.

Hamas held the Biden administration responsible for the continuation of the Nazi-like massacres committed with US weapons and support.

It called on the United Nations and the Arab League to urgently intervene to stop this genocide, to allow aid to enter through land crossings, and not to submit to the will of the Israeli occupation and its fascist policies.

On its part, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) condemned the Israeli massacre, deeming it "a genocide committed with US approval."

The PFLP called on the Palestinian people, the Arab nation, and the free people of the world to turn Friday into a day of comprehensive escalation on the ground.

Meanwhile, the Palestinian al-Mujahideen Movement held the US administration, Western governments, and the Arab regimes responsible for the ongoing genocide committed by the Nazi-like Israeli occupation against the besieged and starving people in Gaza.

Al-Mujahideen Movement described the crime represents "a disgrace to every complicit, silent and negligent person," noting that, by deliberately killing civilians after starving them, the Israeli occupation aims to turn Gaza into an inhabitable place.

Earlier, the Ministry of Health in Gaza reported seven massacres in the past 24 hours alone.

According to the ministry, the Israeli massacres have resulted in the deaths of 69 Palestinian people and the injury of 110 others.

These numbers, however, fail to account for those who remain trapped under the rubble or on the streets as the Israeli occupation forces have forbidden ambulances and civil defense teams from reaching them.

Overall, the death toll from the Israeli occupation's genocidal war has now risen to 31,341 martyrs, with 73,134 individuals injured since October 7.
