Israeli fighter jets and artillery unleashed a barrage of strikes across Gaza City on Monday, flattening residential buildings, mosques, schools, and commercial sites, according to local reports. By 10 pm al-Quds time, at least dozens of Palestinians had been killed and many others wounded as bombardment night.

Early on Tuesday, Al Mayadeen's correspondent in the Gaza Strip reported that Israeli occupation forces committed several massacres against Palestinians and demolished entire residential blocs. Our correspondent stressed that these attacks marked a clear escalation of the aggression on the Gaza Strip. However, he highlighted that no ground advancement was recorded, contrary to circulating reports.

Among the deadliest attacks was a strike on two homes belonging to the Abu Leila and Abu Qinas families at the Abu Khousa junction on al-Jalaa Street in Sheikh Radwan, where nine people were confirmed dead. Another four were killed when Israeli fire hit a gathering of civilians in the al-Karama area in the city’s north.

Other targets included a tent near Capital Mall on Ahmed Abdulaziz Street in al-Rimal, the al-Zeenati apartment block in the intelligence street area, a house belonging to the Saleh family in al-Yarmouk, and the al-Ghafri Tower, Gaza’s tallest high-rise, which was completely destroyed.

Relentless aggression hits Gaza

The attacks also struck the al-Nile School and al-Baraa Mosque near Barcelona Park in Tel al-Hawa, as well as residential homes belonging to the Saleh, al-Thalathini, and Falfil families on the new Lababidi Street east of al-Ghafri junction. A vehicle carrying civilians on al-Jalaa Street was also hit.

Further bombardment targeted a home for the Jaarour family near the al-Tabiin School in al-Daraj, a tent near al-Amin Mohammad Mosque at Abu Mazen roundabout, and the Batsh family house behind Yafa School in al-Tuffah. Artillery fire was reported repeatedly around the Bahloul area in al-Nasr, while air raids and shelling pounded al-Karama throughout the day.

Additional strikes damaged the al-Koweifi family’s roof opposite the Holy Family School in western Gaza, the al-Mashtal Hotel in the northwest, a water truck near Hamama School in Sheikh Radwan, and several apartment blocks, including al-Sahaba on al-Wahda Street, al-Rifa’i near the military court in Beach Camp, and al-Zaidiyah opposite al-Ma’amouniyah School in northern al-Rimal.

Local officials said the relentless attacks left swaths of the city in ruins, with rescue teams struggling to reach victims trapped under the rubble amid continuing fire.

Gaza’s Nasser Hospital warns it can’t cope with new influx of wounded

Doctors and staff at Gaza’s largest remaining hospital warn they will be unable to handle an influx of patients if hundreds of thousands of Palestinians flee the north amid an escalating Israeli genocide, The Guardian reported.

Dr Mohammed Saqr, director of nursing at the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, said the facility is already stretched, with too few staff and dwindling medicine and fuel supplies.

“We have been working for more than 23 months in an emergency situation so we are all exhausted,” Saqr said in a voice note from the hospital on Friday. “Some of us are still in Israeli jails and others were killed inside the hospital and outside and others had to leave [the] Gaza Strip to escape death, so our numbers are not like before the war.”

Gaza is a 'wasteland'

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) warned on Sunday that the Gaza Strip is turning into a “wasteland” amid an intensifying Israeli genocide.

In a post on X, the agency said, “Gaza is being completely obliterated. It’s becoming a wasteland, and seems to become more and more unfit for human living.”

It added, “Children are starving. Families are forcibly displaced. People are terrified,” stressing that as the large-scale assault continues, “political will and decision-making is needed more than ever.”
