Israeli occupation warplanes launched intense airstrikes on the city of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip, according to Al Mayadeen's correspondent, who also reported fierce confrontations between the Palestinian Resistance and Israeli forces in the Khan Younis axis.

Our correspondent mentioned that one Palestinian was killed and others were wounded in an Israeli shelling that targeted Deir al-Balah in central Gaza.

Israeli forces targeted a house in Deir al-Balah as well as a civilian car transporting casualties to the al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, noting that seven people were martyred and several others were injured as a result of the strike on the house.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent also said that the Israeli occupation targeted a civilian car carrying casualties from Deir al-Balah, killing everyone inside.

On Wednesday, dozens were martyred and injured in an airstrike carried out by Israeli warplanes in front of the Palestine Red Crescent Society's al-Amal Hospital in Khan Younis, south of the Gaza Strip.

Israeli warplanes launched intense airstrikes targeting the central area of the Strip, especially the al-Bureij and al-Maghazi camps, with shells reaching shelter centers, resulting in the martyrdom of several individuals.

Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that the Israeli aggression on Gaza has turned hospitals into small health centers unable to provide services, operating at a capacity not exceeding 30%.

Earlier, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Health in Gaza, Ashraf al-Qudra, confirmed that in 24 hours, the Israeli occupation committed 16 massacres, resulting in 195 martyrs and 325 injuries.

The new massacres bring the total number of Palestinians killed in the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza to more than 21,110 martyrs and 55,243 injuries since October 7, mostly children and women.

Al-Qudra pointed out that the Israeli occupation is intensifying its strikes in the vicinity of the Nasser Medical Complex and expressed concern that the tragedy committed by the entity against Al-Shifa Hospital will be repeated.

The Ministry spokesperson called upon international organizations to take effective and urgent measures to ensure the protection of the Nasser complex, its staff, the wounded, patients, and the thousands of displaced people sheltered inside. Furthermore, he called on the organizations to make immediate interventions to reopen the Al-Shifa Medical Complex.

On his part, the director of Abu Youssef Al-Najjar Hospital in Rafah, Marwan al-Hams, warned that the situation is catastrophic, and infectious diseases have spread among the displaced.

According to al-Hams, there is a lack of medications to cover the health needs of all patients, especially those with heart and kidney diseases.

He also called for the urgent provision of all types of medications and medical equipment to the besieged Strip, revealing that what has entered through the Rafah crossing has been exhausted almost entirely.

Furthermore, al-Hams emphasized that 1.2 million displaced people are living on canned food, which contains spoiled substances that may lead to diseases.
