The Israeli occupation committed three massacres across the Gaza Strip in 24 hours, killing 32 Palestinians and injuring 95 others. 

While some of the victims were transported to the few partially functioning hospitals in the Strip, most of them remain trapped beneath the rubble, with almost impossible means to get out, amid the continuous Israeli obstruction of rescue operations. 

This brings the death toll to 44,612 Palestinians, in addition to 105,834 injuries since October 7, 2023. 

The Israeli genocide continues

Israeli shelling killed dozens of civilians and wounded many others in various areas across the northern and southern Gaza Strip.

Israeli forces targeted a residential block near Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahia, resulting in the deaths of over 30 civilians and leaving many others injured, Wafa reported.

The explosion also caused extensive damage in the area.

In Jabalia, two civilians were killed in an Israeli bombardment of the Ra'afi school, where forcibly displaced people had sought refuge.

An Israeli airstrike also killed three people in the Khirbet al-Adas area, north of Rafah.

A significant number of people remain missing under the rubble in Beit Lahia, with bodies and injured individuals scattered in the streets, inaccessible due to ongoing blockades by Israeli forces. Ambulances and medical teams are being prevented from reaching the area, with forces targeting anyone attempting to approach.

Horrific scenes unfold at Kamal Adwan Hospital after Israeli invasion

Early this Friday morning, Israeli units stormed Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza, forcibly evacuating medical staff and patients and detaining a large number of individuals present at the hospital, Al Mayadeen’s correspondent reported.

The abductees, including medical staff, were taken to an undisclosed destination.

The head of Kamal Adwan Hospital Hussam Abu Safiya released a statement detailing the atrocities unfolding inside the hospital and in its vicinity.

Describing the situation inside and around the hospital as “catastrophic”, Abu Safiya maintained that there were scores of casualties, including 4 martyrs from the hospital's medical staff.

“No surgeons are left,” he further warned, adding that "the only medical team that was performing operations was the Indonesian medical delegation, and they were the first to be forced to leave toward a checkpoint."

“Medical supplies are running out, and there are hundreds of victims,” he said, reflecting on the size of the tragedy.

Detailing the series of events, he said, “At first, there were a series of airstrikes on the northern and western sides of the hospital, accompanied by heavy and direct fire, which fortunately did not result in any injuries inside the hospital.”

“Then we were surprised by two people entering the hospital carrying a loudspeaker, ordering me to evacuate all patients, displaced persons, and medical to the hospital yard and forcibly take them out to the checkpoint," Abu Safiya continued.

He also said he was asked to secure one escort for each patient and displaced person to help with the evacuation, only to describe how in the morning, they woke up to hundreds of dead bodies and wounded individuals in the streets surrounding the hospital.

“The oxygen generators were targeted at night, and now there are only two inexperienced surgeons available to operate on patients,” Abu Safiya further detailed, adding that they were forced to start operations despite their lack of experience, as there were 20 wounded individuals who needed urgent care.

The medical chief called on human rights organizations and international institutions to take action now to save whatever can be saved as a result of the “repeated war crimes that have become a daily routine for the occupation.”
