An Israeli strike that targeted displaced people on Saturday at the Sayyeda Khadija School in western Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip killed at least 30 Palestinians and about 100 others, many of whom are in critical condition.

In detail, Al Mayadeen’s correspondent in Deir al-Balah reported that the death toll from the Deir al-Balah massacre is expected to rise due to the severity of the injuries, highlighting that more than 60% of those injured in the Israeli bombing are in serious condition.

Our correspondent mentioned that the Israeli warplanes bombed the Sayyeda Khadija School with four missiles, one of which did not explode, adding that the occupation warplanes bombed the second floor of the school and the field hospital within it.

Later, Israeli occupation forces bombed the evacuated Ahmad al-Kurd School, located near the Sayyeda Khadija School, with two highly explosive missiles.

In the same vein, several Palestinians were killed and others were injured in an Israeli airstrike on a house in the al-Maghazi refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Gaza reported that seven people were injured in an Israeli airstrike that targeted Palestinians in the al-Miraj area north of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

Moreover, Israeli occupation forces committed another massacre in the Aabasan al-Kabirah area in Khan Younis, while leveling more residential buildings in the al-Mughraqa area in the central region early Saturday.

An Israeli airstrike also targeted a house east of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip.

In Gaza City, several Palestinians were injured after Israeli occupation forces targeted a group of civilians near the Kuwait Square in the al-Zaytoun neighborhood, southeast of Gaza.

The Ministry mentioned that, in 24 hours, Israeli occupation forces committed three massacres, killing 42 Palestinians and injuring 83 others.

It added that this morning, the Israeli massacres in Khan Younis killed 23 and injured more than 89 Palestinians, some of which are in serious condition.

The report reminded that a number of victims are still under the rubble and on the roads, as ambulance and civil defense crews cannot reach them. 

Hamas condemns the 'brutal massacre'

The Palestinian Resistance movement Hamas condemned the "brutal massacre" committed by the Israeli occupation forces in Deir al-Balah, describing it as a "heinous crime that underscores the detachment of this terrorist enemy from all human values."

In a statement, Hamas said that "the terrorist occupation government continues to perpetrate the most atrocious massacres against unarmed civilians in cold blood, without any deterrence, and under the criminal cover of the United States."

The movement called on the masses of the Arab and Islamic nations, as well as the free people of the world, to mobilize and put pressure to stop the ongoing war of genocide, starvation, and destruction.

Health Ministry warns of health system situation in Khan Younis

In a related context, the Ministry of Health in Gaza has announced that it is no longer possible to operate the European Hospital in Khan Younis in southern Gaza, due to the increasing number of areas being forcibly evacuated by Israeli occupation forces.

In a statement, the Ministry confirmed that several primary healthcare centers in Khan Younis, as well as numerous field medical points, are out of service.

The statement further warned that the expansion of displacement areas indicates that the evacuation could affect the vicinity of the Nasser Hospital, the only hospital still operational despite the challenges and Israeli attacks.

The Ministry of Health appealed to all international and UN institutions and relevant bodies for urgent and immediate intervention to protect the remaining health institutions.

Collapsing health system

On her part, Nibal Farsakh, the director of Communications at the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, told Al Mayadeen that the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip is "beyond catastrophic".

She underscored that most hospitals in the Gaza Strip are out of service, emphasizing that the health system is in a state of collapse.
