64 Palestinian civilians have been killed in Israeli airstrikes across Gaza since the early hours of Saturday, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported, as Israeli bombs rain down on the already devastated Strip and a dire humanitarian situation. 

Several civilians were martyred and others injured as the occupation bombed residential areas in Gaza City and Al-Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza. Medical sources at Al-Awda Hospital confirmed the arrival of eight martyrs, including five children, along with 18 wounded individuals, most of whom were children. The casualties followed the targeting of a group of civilians in the Camp 2 area of Al-Nuseirat.

In western Gaza City, occupation aircraft targeted a desalination plant near the Bank of Palestine in the al-Jundi al-Majhoul neighborhood, resulting in additional civilian casualties.

Meanwhile, Israeli occupation forces carried out demolitions of residential buildings around the Al-Katiba and Al-Mahatta areas in northern Khan Younis, located in the southern Gaza Strip.

The cumulative death toll, as of Saturday, has spiked to 57,338 Palestinians killed and 135,957 others injured since October 7, 2023.

Gaza health system facing systematic, deliberate destruction

Meanwhile, Gaza's healthcare system continues spiraling toward a complete collapse as a direct result of Israeli aggression and deliberate targeting of hospitals, clinics, medical centers, and medical personnel.

The UN Special Rapporteur on the Right to Health, Tlaleng Mofokeng, has warned that the health system in the Gaza Strip is facing a “systematic and deliberate assault” by the Israeli occupation, as part of a broader campaign undermining the right to life and basic human dignity.

In an exclusive interview with Al Mayadeen, Mofokeng stated that “the right to life no longer exists in Gaza” and that “the chance of survival has become non-existent” amid the continuing aggression. She emphasized that she had repeatedly issued early warnings to the Israeli occupation regarding its obligations under international law but received no response.

Describing the humanitarian and medical conditions in Gaza as catastrophic, Mofokeng said they “do not allow for a dignified life or a society capable of survival or growth.” In addition to the direct injuries caused by relentless attacks, she highlighted the severe psychological toll on Gaza’s residents, who suffer from trauma, chronic stress, and sleep deprivation, conditions that further devastate their physical and mental well-being.

Mofokeng condemned the Israeli occupation’s blockade and repeated attacks on UN and relief agencies, calling it part of a “broader plan to dismantle the human rights system and evade accountability.” The destruction of humanitarian infrastructure and the forced shutdown of aid agencies were not incidental, she stressed, but intentional, and facilitated by the political protection the Israeli regime receives from powerful countries, even within the UN system.
