The Israeli occupation continues its siege of Jabalia refugee camp in the northern Gaza Strip for the 12th consecutive day, with the camp facing dire humanitarian conditions due to the total Israeli blockade and relentless bombardment.

Al Mayadeen’s correspondent in Gaza reported continuous Israeli artillery shelling in Jabalia Camp, as Israeli invading forces maintain a tight siege on the northern region.

Our correspondent also confirmed heavy gunfire from Israeli armored vehicles and drones in the Safatawi area targeting Palestinians, north of the Strip.

'Bodies scattered on streets'

The Director-General of the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza Dr. Munir al-Bursh reported that over the past 11 days, 350 martyrs and hundreds of injuries have been received by hospitals in northern Gaza, as Israeli aggression continues.

Al-Bursh further noted that medical supplies in hospitals are critically low, with a shortage of essential drugs, including anesthetics, while intensive care units have ceased operation due to fuel shortages. He confirmed that no aid has entered northern Gaza for the past 11 days.

In addition, he said that five Palestinians were killed and others wounded after an airstrike targeted a house in al-Nasr area in northern Gaza City.

In central Gaza, Israeli artillery shelling targeted northern Nuseirat, while in the southern city of Rafah, massive explosions were reported in several areas.

'Generals' Plan' for northern Gaza doomed to failure: Hamdan

Hamas political bureau member Osama Hamdan urged, on Tuesday, all Muslims and Arabs, including governments, organizations, and movements, to “take immediate and urgent action by all means” to exert pressure and influence to halt the Zionist occupation’s aggression that continues to kill and displace Gaza residents.

He emphasized the urgent need to address the ongoing Israeli massacre against civilians in the northern part of the Strip, which has persisted for 11 consecutive days as part of what is referred to as the “Generals’ Plan".

During a press conference on Tuesday evening, Hamdan addressed the ongoing Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip, urging active engagement "in mobilizing the community to confront Zionist aggression and US support for it."

He emphasized that "what is happening today in the northern Gaza Strip, particularly in Jabalia and its camp, is a complete genocide." He described how occupation forces are bombarding residential homes and targeting civilian infrastructure, including streets, neighborhoods, bakeries, hospitals, and water wells.
