The Israeli occupation killed 184 Palestinians in a bombing that targeted various areas of the Gaza Strip within 72 hours, while the Indonesian hospital north of the Strip was out of service.
Medical sources confirmed to Tel Aviv Tribune that 66 Palestinians out of 184 were martyred yesterday, Saturday alone.
Tel Aviv Tribune’s correspondent stated that a number of Palestinians – most of them women and children – were injured as a result of two Israeli raids that targeted 3 homes in the Abu Iskander neighborhood, west of Gaza City.
The reporter added that Palestinian civil defense teams continue to search for those trapped under the rubble, while ambulance crews transported injured people to the Baptist Hospital in Gaza, where the conditions of some of them were described as serious.
Local sources confirmed that occupation aircraft bombed a house in the vicinity of the old Sultan Mosque in Shawa Square in Gaza City, and targeted the Al-Tuffah neighborhood, east of the city, resulting in casualties.
In the central Gaza Strip, local Palestinian websites reported that drones fired on the vicinity of the dispensary north of the Maghazi camp, and 4 were killed and others were injured in a drone bombing of a tent in front of the gate of a school housing displaced people in the Bureij camp.
Tel Aviv Tribune’s correspondent reported that the Israeli occupation forces fired light bombs over the Ahli Arab Baptist Hospital and its surroundings in Gaza City, causing a state of terror among the medical staff and patients – especially children and women – in the hospital and its surroundings.
The Indonesian hospital is out of service
In this context, the Ministry of Health announced that the Indonesian hospital was out of service and was no longer providing any services to the sick or wounded.
Director-General of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, said that Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza is still completely out of service.
Ghebreyesus added in a blog post on the X website that the organization had not received any updates regarding the safety of its director, Dr. Hossam Abu Safiya, since his arrest on December 27.
He stressed that the organization continues to urge Israel to release him, and stressed that the attacks on hospitals and health workers must stop.
Civil defense crisis
Meanwhile, the New York Times quoted the International Committee of the Red Cross as saying that rescuers in the Gaza Strip are facing dangerous conditions and are working without sufficient equipment, vehicles or fuel.
She added that rescuers are mostly left alone to extract survivors from under tons of stone, concrete and metal with primitive tools.
