The Israeli occupation is sparing no one and no land across the Gaza Strip as it continues and renews its offensives in the enclave.

Ten Palestinians, including women and children, were killed and others were injured after the Israeli occupation deliberately struck a residential building at the Jabalia intersection in the al-Daraj neighborhood in central Gaza City on Monday night, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported. 

Our correspondent further noted that displaced Palestinians were trapped in the northwestern areas of Rafah city, southern Gaza, amid another Israeli military offensive in the area. 

Several Palestinians were injured as a result of heavy tank fire after Israeli forces advanced into al-Mawasi, an area densely crowded with displaced individuals and families. This came after an Israeli artillery strike targeted the area that still suffers from ongoing house demolitions and destruction.

In Khan Younis, intense artillery shelling continues to target the northern Nuseirat camp and eastern Khuzaa. Meanwhile, the occupation's military vehicles fired heavily in the Tal al-Hawa area, while warships targeted areas surrounding the al-Ilm roundabout, al-Nada neighborhood, and the al-Ferdaws area west of Rafah.

In the northern district, Israeli occupation forces targeted the Kamal Adwan Hospital, which came under simultaneous drone strikes, dropping over ten bombs on its structure, while three explosive robots were deployed around its vicinity. 

The hospital faces a complete power outage, with medicines and medical supplies running out due to the continuous shelling and the siege imposed on the area.

In the latest toll issued by the Ministry of Health in Gaza on day 437 of the ongoing genocide, the number of martyrs has reached 45,028, with 106,962 wounded since October 7, 2023.

The Israeli occupation committed seven massacres across the Gaza Strip in 24 hours, killing 52 Palestinians and injuring 203 others, according to the ministry.
