Local sources report that at least 51 people have been killed by Israeli bombs and artillery shelling on Friday.
Since October 7, 2023, Israel, the occupying power, has been waging a war of genocide in Gaza, including killing, starvation, destruction, and forced displacement, ignoring all international calls and orders from the International Court of Justice to halt it .
The genocide left more than 182,000 dead and wounded, most of them children and women, and more than 11,000 missing, in addition to hundreds of thousands of displaced people and a famine that claimed the lives of many, including children .

“To die by bullets is better than to die of hunger”
An Al Jazeera report about the deadly shootings at US-Israeli aid distribution centres in Gaza describes them as “bait” being used to “lure” starving aid seekers in the “sport of hunting”.
At least 245 Palestinians have been killed while desperately trying to secure food parcels for their families from the US and Israeli-led food distribution centres, which have been branded as “human slaughterhouses” by UN rapporteur Francesca Albanese since they began operating on 27 May.
he Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza says Israel has notified residents near Nasser Medical Complex that the area is now an “evacuation and operations zone,” triggering panic among patients and civilians.
The Ministry accuses Israel of attempting to deliberately take the hospital out of service by bombing surrounding neighborhoods and forcing mass evacuations.
Nasser is the only hospital in southern Gaza that provides specialized services like dialysis, ICU care, neonatal units, and surgeries. Its collapse, they warn, would result in the deaths of hundreds of patients and trigger a wider humanitarian catastrophe.
Officials say this mirrors Israel’s earlier destruction of all hospitals in northern Gaza and urge urgent international action to protect the last functioning medical facilities in the south.
