The Israeli assault on Gaza continues on its third day, killing civilians in widespread attacks across the Strip as "Israel" continues to evade and violate the ceasefire deal. The Israeli aggression on Gaza has killed 605 people across the strip since last Tuesday, according to Palestinian media.

The Israeli occupation army launched an artillery barrage on Friday targeting northwestern sections of Gaza, including the Sudaniya, al-Karamah, and Beit Lahia, which has been subject to artillery strikes that injured several Palestinians since Friday morning.

The Israeli army issued a "final warning" earlier to Palestinians in the Sultan, Karama, and Awda areas in the northern part of the Gaza Strip, urging them to "immediately move south."

Several Palestinians were injured in the afternoon after an Israeli airstrike targeted a house in the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza, hitting an abandoned home near Al-Yemen Al-Saeed Hospital in central Jabalia, causing multiple injuries among passersby in the area.

Local sources reported that several injuries, including one in critical condition, were transported to the Indonesian Hospital in northern Gaza, while six children and several injuries were recorded following an Israeli airstrike that targeted a residential apartment in Gaza City.

WAFA news agency reported that Israeli warplanes launched airstrikes at an apartment on Al-Jarou Street in the al-Tuffah neighborhood, northeast of Gaza City, killing six children and injuring several others.

An Israeli artillery strike killed a mother and her daughter and injured several others after the house they had taken shelter in near a press in the town of Aabasan al-Kabira, east of Khan Younis, in southern Gaza was hit.

Several civilians were injured, some critically, after an Israeli drone strike targeted a group of people in northern Al-Mughraqa, while a young man with disabilities was wounded when Israeli army snipers opened fire on him in the same area, south of Gaza City, with all the injured transported to Al-Awda Hospital in central Gaza.

At the same time, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that the IOF shot illumination munitions north of the Nusierat camp in central Gaza, adding that several Palestinians were injured in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a tent sheltering refugees in Deir al-Balah.

Israeli occupation demolishes only cancer hospital in Gaza

Earlier, Israeli occupation forces (IOF) rigged and demolished a specialized hospital for cancer in Gaza on Friday, as "Israel" continues to ramp up its attacks on the Strip, which have killed hundreds and injured thousands.

The IOF demolished the Turkish-Palestinian Friendship Hospital, which was completed in 2017 and was the only hospital in Gaza dedicated to cancer patients.

During the Israeli war on Gaza, the hospital was shut down after being hit by an airstrike, and the IOF later converted it to a military base. 

Katz explicitly threatens Gaza with genocide, ethnic cleansing

Israeli Foreign Minister Israel Katz on Wednesday threatened the Palestinians in Gaza with the complete destruction of the besieged enclave and signaled the imminent resumption of the forced displacement of its people.

“For Gazans, this is the latest warning ... The air force attacks on Hamas were only the first step. What comes next will be much harder, and you will have to pay the price in full. The evacuation of the population from the war zones will soon begin again. If all kidnapped Israelis are not released and Hamas is not forced out of the Gaza Strip, Israel will act with a force you have never seen before,” Katz said in a direct address to the people of Gaza.

The statement signals a further escalation in the Israeli occupation’s brutal onslaught in the Gaza Strip, which has already killed tens of thousands of Palestinians and displaced the overwhelming majority of the enclave’s residents.

Katz also urged the people of Gaza to follow the advice of former US President Donald Trump, claiming that compliance with Israeli demands could lead to alternative “options” for them, including the forced displacement from Gaza permanently.

“Return the kidnapped and get rid of Hamas, then other options will open up for you, including passage to other parts of the world. The alternative is total destruction and devastation,” he added.
