Israeli warplanes bombed the vicinity of the outpatient clinic at al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza, causing injuries among patients and civilians.
According to Gaza’s Government Media Office, the shelling struck a tent inside the hospital compound, endangering the lives of patients. The office held the Israeli occupation, along with the US administration and allied countries, fully responsible for what it described as “systematic crimes.”

Hamas: A war crime and genocide
Hamas condemned the attack, labeling the bombing of a hospital as a “war crime.” The movement stressed that the government of Benjamin Netanyahu is committing “brutal crimes of genocide” against the Palestinian people.
Hamas called on the international community to urgently intervene to stop the repeated attacks on hospitals, civilians, and public institutions. It urged Arab and Islamic countries to work toward imposing international protection for civilians and holding the occupation accountable for its crimes in Gaza.
80 Palestinians martyred in Gaza since dawn: Al Mayadeen
Al Mayadeen’s correspondent in Gaza reported that at least 80 Palestinians have been martyred since dawn on Sunday as "Israel's" atrocities continue devastating the Gaza Strip.
Occupation forces opened fire on Palestinians waiting for aid in the Sudaniya area in the northwest of the Strip, injuring several civilians. In the south, 38 Palestinians waiting for aid were also killed in similar attacks by the IOF.
According to our correspondent, Israeli aircraft destroyed four houses in the Sabra neighborhood south of Gaza City within one hour. Two more homes in the same neighborhood were also struck despite being inhabited. One civilian was killed and several others were injured.
Earlier raids on the Sabra neighborhood left widespread destruction and further injuries among residents.
In the town of Bani Suhaila, east of Khan Younis, an Israeli airstrike on a house killed one Palestinian. The southern Gaza Strip has witnessed intensified bombardment as part of the latest escalation.
