To add to the horrors in Gaza caused by the ongoing Israeli violent aggression, massive regions in the Strip suffered from complete internet outage, while its largest communications service provider announced that it had shut down all operations across Gaza after Israeli war jets destroyed the company's remaining infrastructure.

"All routes connecting Gaza to the outside world were destroyed" by Israeli strikes, Al Jawwal said in a statement.

Meanwhile, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that today witnessed the most violent strikes on Gaza since October 7, confirming that attacks are being carried out through air, land, and sea. Our correspondent noted that Central Gaza is being targeted as well after attacks in the previous days were concentrated north of the Strip.

While Israeli warplanes were conducting air strikes, Palestinian Resistance forces unleashed a series of heavy and consecutive rocket launches, targeting the vicinity of "Tel Aviv," "Ashdod," "Ashkelon," and central occupied Palestine.

The Israeli occupation persists in its aggression on the Gaza Strip for the 21st consecutive day, with civilian homes being a frequent target. The number of martyrs in the Gaza Strip has now surpassed 7,300, while there are tens of thousands of wounded and missing individuals, as reported by the Gaza government's media office.

In just the past 24 hours, the Israeli occupation committed 41 massacres, resulting in 298 martyrs mostly in southern areas which the entity claimed were "safe". Since the first day of the aggression, Israelis committed a total of 772 massacres.

Israeli attacks included Deir al-Balah in central Gaza and the eastern part of Rafah in the southern region. Other areas attacked include al-Muntar in al-Shujaiya neighborhood, the Bureij and Nuseirat camps in central Gaza, as well as the Sabra neighborhood in Gaza City.

Additionally, the Israeli strikes spared no targets, including places of worship and historic landmarks. The Taiba Mosque, as well as the al-Awda, al-Nada, and Bisan towers in the northern part of the Gaza Strip, were directly targeted. There were even threats to bomb the historic Gaza municipality building, situated in a densely populated neighborhood.

This comes as the healthcare system in Gaza continues to witness increasing deterioration as the Israeli blockade enters its 20th day. The Palestinian Health Ministry stated that 104 healthcare workers have been martyred so far, 25 ambulances were destroyed, and 57 health facilities have gone out of service.

Hospitals and primary care centers have also been taken out of service, either through direct targeting or by blocking the entry of vital supplies, including fuel.

The Israeli aggression extends beyond targeting individuals and healthcare facilities.

According to the government's media office in Gaza, Israelis are deliberately striking essential life needs, including commercial facilities, storage, and food distribution points, exacerbating the depletion of vital supplies from the markets.

Furthermore, thousands of acres of vegetable crops have been destroyed, and farmers are prevented from accessing their fields, leaving large areas of green lands unsuitable for agriculture.

In this dire situation, the government's media office also confirmed that ten bakeries were destroyed by the Israelis amid the continued prohibition of entering food supplies into Gaza.
