In a tragic incident in Khan Younis, Dr. Alaa Al-Najjar, a physician at Nasser Hospital, experienced the devastating loss of nine of her children due to an aggressive assault by Israeli forces.
The attack resulted in the destruction of the Al-Najjar family residence and ignited extensive fires throughout the surrounding area.
Civil defense teams have successfully retrieved all nine bodies from the debris, with eight of the remains heavily dismembered by the impact of the attack.
Al-Najjar learned of the tragic news as she tended to young patients in the pediatric ward of Nasser Hospital. Her children, whose ages spanned from 2 to 16 years, were among those killed, and her husband was counted among the injured.
The health ministry in Gaza has reported that Israeli strikes on Friday have resulted in the deaths of at least 76 Palestinians.
The strikes persisted into early Friday after Israeli tanks and drones targeted a hospital in northern Gaza, igniting fires and inflicting substantial damage, according to statements from Palestinian hospital officials on Thursday.
The United Nations has reported that approximately 599,000 individuals in Gaza have been displaced once again.
Israel is facing mounting international criticism over allegations of genocide, as calls intensify for the removal of aid restrictions amid a worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
The United Nations has reported that the blockaded region has been subjected to an Israeli siege for close to three months. Humanitarian organizations are raising alarms that famine is now a looming threat for almost the entire population of Gaza, comprising 2.3 million residents.
According to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), 81% of Gaza has become enveloped in zones under Israeli military control, areas subjected to displacement orders, or regions deemed high risk, leaving civilians without a secure place to escape.
According to United Nations estimates, more than 599,000 individuals have been displaced in Gaza following the collapse of the ceasefire, with 161,000 of them uprooted in just one week from May 15 to May 21.
Israeli authorities enforced an extensive blockade on Gaza for a duration of 11 weeks, spanning from March 2 to May 18, effectively halting any humanitarian aid from reaching the area.
On October 7, 2023, Israel initiated a military campaign in Gaza. Reports from Gaza’s health ministry indicate that this offensive has resulted in the deaths of at least 53,800 Palestinians, the majority of whom are women and children.
In January, the Israeli authorities consented to a ceasefire agreement with Hamas after failing to accomplish key objectives, such as dismantling the Palestinian resistance movement or securing the release of captives.
The 42-day phase of the truce, which faced numerous breaches by Israeli actions, concluded on March 1. However, Israel is holding back from engaging in discussions for the subsequent stage of the agreement.
On March 18, hostilities reignited as the regime recommenced its strikes on Gaza, effectively ending a ceasefire that had lasted for nearly two months. Prior to the renewed offensive, Israel had imposed a comprehensive blockade on the region, halting the entry of food, medical supplies, and other goods into the already besieged area.
Reports have emerged condemning Israel for allegedly employing starvation as a tactic of warfare against Palestinian populations.
