The government media office in Gaza announced that the number of martyrs of the occupation massacre in the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip had risen to 210, and more than 400 were injured.
Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital is crowded with the injured and the bodies of martyrs, most of whom are children and women who were placed on the floor and hospital corridors due to the lack of beds and basic medical supplies.
The Israeli bombing targeted the vicinity of Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir Al-Balah. Hospital spokesman Khalil Al-Dakran said that large numbers of wounded are at risk of death due to the seriousness of their conditions and the lack of medical capabilities.
Earlier, the hospital spokesman said that 55 martyrs arrived at the hospital, which led to it being overcrowded and unable to receive more. Al-Dakran appealed to citizens to donate blood, and also called on the international community to intervene to stop the aggression.
Ambulances continue to transport injured people from various areas of Nuseirat camp, which were subjected to intense Israeli bombardment.
A spokesman for the Red Crescent in Gaza told Tel Aviv Tribune that the occupation forces carried out a mass killing operation that claimed dozens of martyrs and wounded, noting that the health system suffers from a severe shortage after Israel took control of the Rafah crossing.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza reported that large numbers of dead and injured were arriving at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, the majority of whom were children and women, as a result of the ongoing Israeli bombing of several areas in the central governorate of the Strip.
The Ministry said – in a post on its Facebook page – that dozens of injured people are lying on the ground, and medical teams are trying to save them with the simple medical capabilities available to them.
She pointed out that “Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital is facing a severe shortage of medicines, medical consumables, and fuel, in addition to the stoppage of the main electric generator,” noting that the hospital is facing great difficulties in controlling the increasing number of casualties as a result of the bombing.
Eyewitnesses said that a number of victims were lying in the streets of the Nuseirat camp and that none of the ambulances could reach them and evacuate them.
‘Brutal attack’
As for the government media office, it said that the occupation army launched an unprecedented brutal attack on the Nuseirat camp and several areas in the Central Governorate, leaving dozens of martyrs and wounded.
He added that the occupation directly targets civilians, and that the intensity of the bombing hindered ambulances and civil defense from reaching the place.
He explained that the occupation is waging its aggression using dozens of warplanes, quadcopters, and helicopters, in conjunction with tank shelling.
The office confirmed that “the occupation is practicing organized crime against civilians, security forces, children and women throughout the Central Governorate.”
The government office held the occupation and the American administration fully responsible for what it called the catastrophic crime in which the blood of dozens of innocent people was shed.
Palestinian security sources announced that the Israeli army targeted several residential homes and open areas in the Nuseirat camp and the city of Deir al-Balah, leading to the killing of dozens of Palestinians.
Security sources explained that a special Israeli military force infiltrated the Nuseirat camp amid air and ground coverage from Israeli military vehicles. That force surrounded a house and clashed with a number of Palestinian militants present in that house.
A short while ago, Tel Aviv Tribune’s correspondent reported that the occupation forces launched a bombing that also targeted a house in the Nuseirat camp.
This Israeli “massacre” came in conjunction with the occupation army’s announcement that it was able to recover 4 prisoners in a complex operation in the Nuseirat camp that had been planned weeks ago.
Special photos from Tel Aviv Tribune showed Israeli forces using an aid truck and a civilian car to carry out the operation.
Axios quoted a US administration official as saying that the “American kidnappers cell in Israel” assisted in the operation.
