Ten civilians, including women and children from the Al-Turk family, were killed in an airstrike at dawn when Israeli warplanes targeted an apartment near the Jabalia parking lot in Palestine Square, located in central Gaza.

The building was reduced to rubble, and ongoing shelling in the area made rescue and evacuation efforts extremely difficult.

In northern Gaza, the situation at Kamal Adwan Hospital worsened as Israeli forces escalated their aggression. Drones reportedly dropped more than ten bombs on the facility, while troops planted three explosive devices around its perimeter. The hospital is now without power and is critically short of medicines and supplies. The siege and repeated bombings have made the already dire situation unbearable for patients and medical staff alike.

Elsewhere in Gaza, the conflict raged on. Artillery fire pounded the area north of Nuseirat camp and the eastern parts of Khuza'a town in Khan Yunis, while in Rafah city, Israeli forces bulldozed homes and leveled entire neighborhoods. In Tal al-Hawa, heavy gunfire echoed across the southwest, and Israeli naval forces shelled targets near the Al-Alam roundabout, Ezbet al-Nada, and the Al-Firdaws area west of Rafah.

The ongoing Israeli aggression, which began on October 7, 2023, has caused unimaginable devastation. According to the latest reports, the death toll has surpassed 45,000 civilians, with over 106,000 others injured.

Life in Gaza remains a nightmare. Entire neighborhoods have been destroyed, families torn apart, and critical infrastructure obliterated. The people of Gaza face not only the daily bombardments but also an ever-deepening humanitarian crisis, with no respite in sight. The siege has left hundreds of thousands of civilians cut off from medical care, food, and basic necessities, while the psychological and physical toll continues to mount. (ILKHA)
