According to a statement by UN experts, the targeting of the Jabalia refugee camp is not only in violation of international law but also a war crime. 

The Palestinian Health Ministry revealed in its latest report that the number of martyrs in the ongoing Israeli crimes across Palestine exceeded 9,000, including 3,760 children, 2,326 women, and 32,000 people injured with various wounds.

"Attacking a camp sheltering civilians, including women and children, is a complete breach of the rules of proportionality and distinction between combatants and civilians," the experts stated.

The statement also explained that "time is running out" in order to prevent genocide in Gaza.

"We remain convinced that the Palestinian people are at grave risk of genocide."

The experts, pointing out that the situation in Gaza has reached a "catastrophic tipping point," cautioned about the impending health risks and the urgent need for food, water, medications, gasoline, and other necessities.

Earlier on Wednesday, the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza reported a new massacre by Israeli occupation forces in Jabalia, located in northern Gaza.

The spokesperson for the Civil Defense in Gaza confirmed that the Israeli occupation forces bombed a residential area in Jabalia, resulting in a significant number of casualties, including many who are still trapped under the rubble. This marks the second massacre committed by the Israeli occupation in Jabalia in less than 24 hours, with entire families among the casualties.

Concurrently, Israeli warplanes also carried out airstrikes on the Martyrs' Roundabout (al-Falouja) in Jabalia and a house on al-Alami Street within the Jabalia camp.

According to reports, victims were transported to al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Str
