Israeli forces killed at least 26 Palestinians across the Gaza Strip on Saturday, including five at another school-turned-shelter for war-displaced civilians in Gaza City.
At least 41,206 Palestinians have been killed and 95,337 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza since October last year.
The Health Ministry added that at least 24 people were killed and 57 wounded in the last 24 hours.
An Israeli attack destroyed the home of Palestinian Civil Defence officer, Zaki Emad al-Din, in the Nuseirat refugee camp.
His daughter and one of his sons were killed in the attack, according to reports fifteen people were wounded in the attack.
This marks the third time his home has been hit. In the first attack, his wife and other children were killed.
Israel has repeatedly targeted Nuseirat. Earlier this week, Israeli bombs struck a UN-run school where about 12,000 displaced Palestinians were sheltering, killing at least 18 people.
Hamas’s armed group says it targeted an Israeli military bulldozer with a shell in the al-Janina neighbourhood, east of Rafah in southern Gaza.
Earlier today, the courtyard of Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital was chaotic, with ambulances being dispatched one after the other to the sites bombed by Israel.
It’s not only family members of those wounded or killed who are present here, but also the hundreds of displaced Palestinians, setting tents here for the last 11 months.
Many who need immediate medical care queue for hours. The operating theatre and the emergency department are flooded with many cases that need immediate attention.
According to doctors, many of these cases are quite treatable. However, there is a lack of medical supplies and staff at the hospital.
