The Israeli occupation forces continue their aggression on the Gaza Strip, targeting civilian homes, resulting in dozens of martyrs and multiple injuries.

"Israel" continues to disregard international law and the orders of the International Court of Justice (ICJ), launching multiple daily attacks on civilian populated areas, causing dozens of civilian casualties on a daily basis.

In Khan Younis, south of the Gaza Strip, the occupation forces demolished on Monday several houses through direct shelling and targeted a residential area.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that two Palestinians were martyred and several others were injured due to Israeli warplanes bombing a house near the European Hospital east of the city.

In Rafah, four Palestinians were martyred in Israeli shelling that targeted a house belonging to the Abu al-Ainin family in the al-Nasr neighborhood.

In the northern part of the Strip, an Israeli helicopter opened fire east of Jabalia camp.

On Sunday evening, 10 Palestinians were martyred and others were injured as the Israeli occupation forces targeted civilians on the coastal road west of Gaza City.

In the same context, at least 15 citizens were martyred and dozens, including children and women, were injured in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a house in the al-Zaytoun neighborhood southeast of Gaza City.

Earlier, the Ministry of Health in Gaza announced that the number of Palestinians martyred since the start of the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Strip on October 7 has risen to 29,692, while the number of wounded has reached 69,879.

The spokesperson for the Ministry, Ashraf al-Qudra, said that the Israeli occupation committed seven massacres against Palestinian families in the Gaza Strip, killing 86 and injuring 131 others, since the last toll was announced on Saturday. 

In the statement, authorities reiterated that several victims remain abandoned in the streets or stuck under the rubble, presumed dead, as Israeli occupation forces block medics and emergency services from reaching the targeted areas.

Gaza health situation "extremely catastrophic", "beyond description"

Reflecting on the health situation in the northern Gaza Strip, the Palestinian Ministry of Health described it as "extremely catastrophic" and "indescribable", noting that hospitals in Gaza and its north are without fuel, especially the Baptist Hospital, east of Gaza City, which has run out of fuel at least 10 days ago.

Al-Hilu International Specialized Hospital is also without fuel, it added.

The Ministry further highlighted the distressing situation, pointing out that medicine refrigerators are without electricity, which threatens to destroy several sensitive medicines.

It also revealed that dozens of ambulances, civil defense vehicles, and medical services are out of service, as a result of the lack of fuel, and that dialysis and intensive care patients are now facing the threat of inevitable death as a result of shortages in medicines, generator fuel, and ambulances.
