The situation in Gaza remains dire as the Israeli occupation forces persist in their aggressive campaign against the region, now entering its 94th day. The relentless onslaught has seen dozens of air strikes, shelling, and fire belts unleashed, causing widespread destruction and loss of life. Shockingly, civilians have become the targets of brutal massacres and horrific crimes, adding to the mounting evidence of genocide.

The catastrophic humanitarian crisis has been exacerbated by the ongoing siege, which has forced the displacement of over 90% of the populace. Jordon’s Palestinian Information Center has reported that the occupation aircraft and artillery continue their bombardment, hitting homes, communities, facilities, and streets. The death toll has reached hundreds, with countless more wounded.

Within the past 24 hours alone, 73 martyrs and 99 injured were rushed to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in the heart of the Strip, as declared by the Ministry of Health in Gaza. Tragically, even children are not spared, with the bombing of a residential apartment near the Old Balad Mosque in Deir al-Balah claiming the life of one child.

Additionally, at least 18 civilians were killed when the occupation forces targeted several homes in Deir al-Balah and its surroundings. In another incident, casualties and injuries were reported in the west of Deir al-Balah as the occupation aircraft bombed the Ayyash family’s house.
Meanwhile, the occupation artillery launched violent attacks while the resistance forces confronted the Israeli occupation forces east of Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip. Al-Maghazi camp in the central Gaza Strip was also subjected to a series of brutal raids, leaving residents fearful for their lives. Nuseirat camp suffered a similar fate as an occupation aircraft bombed a house, adding to the chaos and destruction.

In an alarming development, an occupation drone inexplicably fired upon the European Hospital in Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip.
Reports have also emerged indicating that the occupation forces have expanded their incursion into Qaizan al-Najjar and Jort al-Lut, south of Khan Yunis. Homes have been besieged and arrests have been made, causing further distress for the oppressed residents. Fierce clashes erupted in Jurt al-Lot and around the College of Science and Technology in Khan Yunis, which became the target of yet another violent aerial bombardment.
