On the 410th day of the aggression, the Israeli enemy continues its brutal aggression on every part of the Gaza Strip, while sources from inside the Strip reported that the occupation forces have blown up a number of buildings in the Beit Lahia Project area in the north.
This comes at a time when northern Gaza is suffering under an Israeli siege and starvation amidst violent aerial and artillery bombardment, for the forty-sixth day, amidst the complete isolation of the northern governorate from Gaza.Photos from Kamal Adwan Medical Hospital in northern Gaza Strip following the targeting of the third floor by the Israeli occupation artillery.

The occupation forces also continue for the 28th day to forcibly disrupt the work of civil defense in the areas of the northern Gaza Strip due to the ongoing Israeli targeting and aggression, thus leaving thousands of citizens there without humanitarian and medical care.
In this context, the Gaza Health announced that 'the occupation committed 3 massacres during the last 24 hours, of which 50 martyrs and 110 wounded arrived at hospitals,' noting that 'the number of victims of the Israeli aggression on the Strip has risen to 43,972 martyrs and 104 and 8 wounded.' Two Palestinians died of their wounds in the bombing of the central and southern Gaza Strip.BREAKING: Five bodies have been recovered from a house in Beit Lahiya, northern Gaza, that was bombarded yesterday by Israeli occupation forces, according to local sources.

An infant was also killed as a result of enemy artillery shelling that targeted Palestinian homes north of Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip.
According to the director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, Hussam Abu Safiya, the healthcare crisis in northern Gaza is rapidly deteriorating.
'Every day that passes since the beginning of the genocide in the northern governorate, the situation is getting worse.
The health system is still in a state of disaster, and we are providing services at a minimum level,' he said.
Abu Safiya confirmed the dire shortage of medical capabilities in the region, noting that Israel continues to block the arrival of critical medical delegations.
'Cases of malnutrition have begun to arrive at the hospital, most of them children and the elderly due to famine,' he added, warning that 'the risk of death threatens the lives of elderly patients due to the depletion of medicine and the spread of famine in northern Gaza.' The hospital director also reported that 'injured people are losing their lives daily due to the lack of doctors and medicines in the hospital.' This crisis has only worsened with the recent destruction of the only hospital in Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, by the enemy.
The worsening healthcare situation in Gaza is a direct result of the ongoing Israeli blockade and military attacks, which have crippled the region's medical infrastructure and left its most vulnerable populations without access to life-saving care.
