At least 20 Palestinians were martyred and dozens more injured in a brutal Israeli bombardment targeting the Abu Hameisa displacement shelter in al-Bureij refugee camp, central Gaza, according to Al Mayadeen's correspondent. The death toll is expected to rise as rescue efforts continue.

Victims, including children, were rushed to al-Awda Hospital, while others remain trapped under the rubble. A spokesperson for al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital confirmed that rescue teams are struggling to recover bodies amid ongoing Israeli attacks.

Hamas strongly condemned the attack, stating that "The Zionist occupation forces committed a horrific massacre by bombing a shelter housing displaced families in al-Bureij camp, most victims were women and children."

The group added, "Targeting civilians in UN-run shelters, amid catastrophic humanitarian conditions, proves Israel's intent to escalate its genocide against our people."

Palestinian families risk their lives for basic necessities

Palestinians in Gaza continue to endure life-threatening conditions in their search for food. The daily ordeal faced by residents in northern Gaza, forced to navigate perilous terrain to obtain basic supplies, was recently documented by the Anadolu news agency.

With the Israeli occupation banning vehicle movement on key roads, such as Salah al-Din Street, residents now rely on carriages and tuk-tuks, often using the al-Rasheed coastal road, the only remaining route linking north to south Gaza.

Speaking to Anadolu, Tuk-tuk driver Majeed Dabbour described the difficult journey to the Nuseirat refugee camp to collect flour. "It is a trip full of dust and danger," he said. The lack of fuel, exposure to airstrikes, and absence of proper seating compound the challenge. "We are living under extreme pressure."

He stressed the life-threatening nature of these trips, saying, "Any car moving on the road is targeted by the Israeli army; that is why we are forced to use primitive vehicles."

"We have to take the risks to get the flour to feed our children, who have been facing starvation by the Israeli army for more than two months," he added. Dabbour also warned that the flour available in the north is often spoiled and unsafe for consumption.
