On the 398th day of the genocide in Gaza, the Israeli war machine carried out six massacres against Palestinian civilians and families, the overwhelming majority of whom were women and children. 

Over the past 48 hours, 78 martyrs and 214 injured were transported to the very few and partially functioning hospitals across the Gaza Strip. Many victims are still trapped beneath the rubble while "Israel" continues to obstruct rescue operations by bombing roads or directly targeting civil defense crews. 

This has raised the death toll in Gaza since October 7, 2023, to 43,469 killed and 102,561 injured.

Extermination of north Gaza continues

Meanwhile, for the 34th consecutive day, northern Gaza, particularly the Jabalia camp and Beit Lahia, endures severe Israeli siege and starvation amid heavy aerial and artillery attacks, with the province completely isolated from the rest of Gaza.

An Al Mayadeen correspondent in Gaza said at least 15 people were killed in an Israeli airstrike that targeted Beit Lahia and the Jabalia refugee camp in the northern Gaza Strip.

Our correspondent reported that Al-Awa Hospital, which itself is under Israeli bombardment, received the bodies of five martyrs from Tal al-Zaatar in besieged Jabalia, as well as the bodies of five other citizens killed in an Israeli strike targeting the home of the al-Assi family in the Beit Lahia project area in northern Gaza.

Meanwhile, Palestinian media reported injuries after Israeli drones dropped explosives near the gate of the Halima al-Saadia School in Jabalia al-Nazla, northern Gaza.

For the 16th day, Israeli forces forcibly obstructed the work of civil defense teams in northern Gaza due to ongoing targeting and aggression, leaving thousands of residents without humanitarian and medical assistance.
