The Israeli occupation forces have destroyed several homes belonging to residents in the Beit Lahia project, located in the northern Gaza Strip.

Tragically, during an Israeli bombardment that specifically targeted civilians near the al-Qassam Mosque in Beit Lahia, there were numerous martyrs and many injuries. This escalation of violence underscores the dire humanitarian situation facing the local population and highlights the urgent need for international attention and intervention.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that 12 martyrs were killed in a massacre caused by indiscriminate shelling at the Abu al-Jedian junction in the Beit Lahia project, targeting displaced individuals. This tragic event has led to numerous injuries, worsening the already dire humanitarian crisis faced by vulnerable populations in the region. The ongoing violence underscores the urgent need for increased aid for affected civilians who continue to endure unimaginable suffering.

Our correspondent reported that hundreds of families trapped in the Jabalia camp and the Beit Lahia area are urgently appealing for rescue and evacuation. He noted that the occupation forces have dropped leaflets over Beit Lahia, instructing residents to move toward the southern part of the Strip. This situation highlights the desperate conditions faced by civilians and the pressing need for humanitarian assistance and safe passage for those affected.

The continuous Israeli bombardment around Kamal Adwan Hospital has led to an increase in martyrs and wounded, while ambulance crews have struggled to reach and assist the injured. This dire situation highlights the urgent need for safe access to medical care and the protection of civilians, particularly in such critical areas where health services are essential.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent said that the occupation is forcing residents in the vicinity of Kamal Adwan Hospital and the outskirts of the Beit Lahia project to move to Beit Lahia.

Continued Israeli siege hampers humanitarian operations 

The occupation forces have maintained a siege on Jabalia and northern Gaza for the 18th consecutive day, subjecting the area to continuous artillery shelling and repeated attacks in the Haboub area of the Beit Lahia project. When Civil Defense crews arrived at the scene, they were shot by occupation forces, significantly complicating their rescue efforts.

This ongoing violence not only severely hampers humanitarian operations but also places the lives of both civilians and emergency responders in imminent danger. The situation starkly underscores the urgent need for protection and comprehensive support for those attempting to provide aid amidst the chaos of war, since ensuring safe access for humanitarian efforts is crucial to alleviating the suffering of affected populations.

Tens of thousands of displaced people are in the Beit Lahia project, which is under siege by the occupation army.

Moreover, quadcopters are reportedly surrounding Khalifa Bin Zayed School in the Beit Lahia project, issuing warnings to thousands of displaced individuals to evacuate forcibly or face threats of death and arrest. This alarming tactic further intensifies the already desperate situation for those seeking refuge, compounding fears and uncertainties among the displaced population. The use of such measures highlights the urgent need for protection and safe havens for civilians amidst the ongoing war.

Furthermore, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported on the terror prevailing among children and women in Khalifa bin Zayed School due to the occupation’s threats.
