The Israeli enemy forces continue their war of genocide against the Gaza Strip for the 682nd consecutive day, through aerial and artillery bombardment, the killing of starving and displaced people, with American political and military support, international silence, and unprecedented abandonment by the international community and Arab states.

The sources said, “Citizens were injured when occupation aircraft targeted an apartment near Al-Shifa Hospital, west of Gaza City.” They added, “Citizens were injured when occupation aircraft targeted an apartment in Block 12 in the Al-Bureij refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip at dawn on Monday.”
With unwavering American support, Israeli forces are waging a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip, which has so far left 61,944 martyrs, 155,886 wounded, more than 10,000 missing, and dozens of people dead as a result of famine. Meanwhile, more than two million Palestinians are living in conditions of forced displacement amidst widespread destruction.
Among the martyrs are 10,400 martyrs and 43,845 wounded, targeted after the occupation reneged on the ceasefire agreement on March 18, 2025.
