The Israeli occupation forces continue their genocidal campaign against the Gaza Strip, with ongoing bombardments, massacring displaced civilians, and the systematic destruction of homes, particularly in the northern regions.

The Israeli occupation forces persist in their genocidal campaign against the Gaza Strip, now entering its 423rd consecutive day. Ongoing aerial bombardments, devastating massacres of displaced civilians, and the widespread and systematic destruction of homes and entire neighborhoods mark this genocidal campaign. Meanwhile, a suffocating siege continues to be enforced, blocking the entry of essential food and medical supplies, exacerbating the suffering of the population.

The occupation forces intensified their artillery and aerial bombardment since Monday morning, especially in the north of Nuseirat Camp in the central governorate, where the area is witnessing extensive house demolition.

This morning, a Palestinian was killed by the gunfire of Israeli occupation soldiers near the village of al-Masdar in the central Gaza Strip. In a separate incident, several others were injured when the occupation forces bombed a house in the Bureij refugee camp, also located in central Gaza.

In the northern Gaza Strip, Israeli occupation artillery continued to bombard residential neighborhoods, targeting the Saftawi area north of Gaza City. The shelling destroyed more homes and buildings, particularly in the Jabalia refugee camp and the town of Beit Lahia. This escalation comes amid nearly two months of ongoing genocide, as the occupation forces intensify their brutal campaign against the civilian population in the region.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that several martyrs and wounded were the victims of an Israeli airstrike that targeted the vicinity of al-Omari Mosque in Jabalia al-Balad, located in the northern Gaza Strip. The attack added to the mounting toll of casualties in the region, already devastated by ongoing bombardments.

Injuries were recorded as a result of an Israeli drone attack on a school housing displaced people in Jabalia al-Nazla, in the north. Additionally, six Palestinians were injured in an airstrike that targeted Saadallah Street in the al-Nazla neighborhood, also in Jabalia.

Simultaneously, Israeli occupation aircraft targeted a residential building in the Beit Lahia project, located in the northern Gaza Strip. The bombing further exacerbated the destruction of civilian infrastructure in the region, contributing to the widespread suffering of the population.

Ethnic cleansing in northern Gaza

For the 60th consecutive day, northern Gaza is enduring an ongoing ethnic cleansing campaign marked by intense aerial and artillery bombardments, the systematic demolition of homes, and the total isolation of the northern governorate from the rest of Gaza. This brutal operation is part of a broader genocidal assault that is devastating both the people and the land, leaving entire communities displaced and decimated.

Video footage has documented the destruction caused by the Israeli occupation forces, who burned electricity generators and vital facilities at the Indonesian Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip. Meanwhile, civil defense teams continue efforts to rescue survivors and manage the devastation despite working under near-impossible conditions. These brave workers face constant threats as the occupation repeatedly targets them, their crews, and their equipment, further impeding any attempts to provide emergency relief.

Beit Lahia massacre

Palestinian sources have reported that the number of martyrs from the Beit Lahia massacre, carried out by the Israeli occupation forces yesterday, has risen to 25. The massacre, which targeted civilians in the area, further underscores the scale of the ongoing violence and the heavy toll it is taking on the Palestinian population.

At the same time, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that the body of a martyr was recovered from Khirbet al-Adas in Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip. 

The Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip has announced that the death toll has risen to 44,466 since the onset of the Israeli occupation’s aggression on October 7, 2023. The majority of those killed are women and children, underscoring the disproportionate impact of the violence on vulnerable civilians. 

The ministry added that the number of injuries has risen to 105,358 since the beginning of the aggression, while thousands of martyrs are still under the rubble.

It pointed out that the occupation forces committed, during the past 24 hours, four massacres, which resulted in the martyrdom of 37 Palestinians and the injury of 108 others.
