The Israeli occupation continues its relentless massacres and genocide in Gaza, while simultaneously imposing a suffocating siege on the entirety of the Strip, resulting in extreme stages of starvation, according to Al Mayadeen's correspondent.

In northern Gaza, several Palestinians were killed, including a doctor and his wife, in the ceaseless artillery shelling of Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahia.

Artillery shelling also targeted the northern area of the Nuseirat camp in central Gaza, while the city of al-Daawa, in the northeastern part of the camp simultaneously came under direct fire launched from Israeli vehicles.

A number of casualties were also recorded after an Israeli airstrike targeted a residential apartment in Nuseirat and Israeli artillery shelled the vicinity of al-Izz school in its north.

Meanwhile, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported continuous attacks on Bureij, al-Maghazi, al-Masdar, the al-Zaytoun Neighborhood, and al-Sina'a Street.

Israeli helicopters opened fire east of the Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza, while the al-Maghazi camp saw limited advances by occupation vehicles amid heavy gunfire and artillery shelling.

In the southern Gaza Strip, eight Palestinians were killed in an Israeli airstrike on Rafah while searching for flour, as the famine ravages through its most critical stages, according to our correspondent.

In the latest toll issued by the Ministry of Health in Gaza on day 429 of the ongoing genocide, the number of martyrs has reached 44,708, with 106,050 wounded since October 7, 2023.

The Israeli occupation committed four massacres across the Gaza Strip in 24 hours, killing 44 Palestinians and injuring 74 others, according to the ministry.
