This comes as Ashraf Al-Qudra, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Health in Gaza, announced in an interview with Al Mayadeen today that the IOF is sentencing 800,000 people to death in the northern Gaza Strip as a result of the ongoing Israeli bombing, amid a collapsing health sector and absence of medical aid.
He stated that the cases being seen by the medical team are a direct result of the occupation's use of internationally banned non-conventional weapons.
In the northern Gaza strip, six Palestinians were killed and several others were injured by bullets from IOF troops stationed on the coastal road in the southwest of Gaza.
As a result of the occupation targeting a house belonging to the Asalia family in the town of Jabalia, several Palestinians were martyred and others injured.
