The Israeli military has conducted fresh attacks on civilian facilities in the northern Gaza Strip, killing and injuring several Palestinians in the besieged territory.

Reports said early on Sunday that eight Palestinians were killed in an Israeli airstrike on Gaza City’s Musa bin Nusair school, which is sheltering displaced families.

Israeli forces also opened fire on the al-Awda hospital, in Jabalia refugee camp.

Another Israeli raid was reported on the Kamal Adwan hospital, in Beit Lahia, wounding several people.

Citing medical sources, the Palestinian news agency WAFA said that the hospital came under intense and indiscriminate shelling, with the occupation forces targeting the medical center using bombs, artillery shells, and sniper fire.

It added that the assault caused significant damage to the hospital’s power generators and various departments.

Footage released from inside the hospital, showed many patients sleeping in corridors.

Meanwhile, some reports said Israeli forces have blown up two explosive robots, causing significant destruction to residential buildings near the medical facility.

Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya, the hospital’s director, said in a statement that Israel’s heavy bombing of the hospital came without any prior warning.

“The bombing is being conducted with explosives and tank fire, directly targeting us while we are present inside the hospital departments,” he said.

“We are being attacked in plain sight, with the entire world watching, yet no one intervenes in the face of this barbarity.”

Some 66 Palestinians are getting treatment inside the hospital, whose communication with Gaza’s Health Ministry has been cut off.

Israel unleashed a genocidal war on Gaza on October 7, 2023, after the Palestinian Hamas resistance group carried out a historic operation against the usurping entity in retaliation for its intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.

So far, the Tel Aviv regime has killed at least 45,227 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injured 107,573 others. 

During its bloody onslaught, Israel has targeted Gaza’s civilian infrastructure in blatant violation of international law.
