</li></div></ul>
<p>An official from the Gaza government's media office informed <strong>Al Mayadeen</strong>
on Sunday that the Shujaiya neighborhood massacre carried out by the
Israeli occupation forces in the past hours is one of the most horrific
incidents, with more than 500 martyrs reported.</p>
<p>The official pointed out that the situation in hospitals is tragic
due to the lack of fuel and the bare minimum of medical supplies.</p>
<p>An <strong>Al Mayadeen</strong> correspondent in Gaza reported that
health conditions are catastrophic, expressing concerns about the
potential spread of cholera following the emergence of liver disease.</p>
<p>The correspondent also highlighted the dire situation at Kamal Adwan
Hospital due to the influx of wounded individuals, with dozens of
martyrs' bodies situated outside the hospital. He also mentioned that
indiscriminate Israeli bombing targeted the al-Sikka area, Tal
al-Zaatar, and the vicinity of Kamal Adwan Hospital.</p>
<p>There were 10 casualties in an Israeli attack on a house east of
Rafah, and the death toll of the Azoum family in the al-Geneina
neighborhood in Rafah reached 12, with ongoing efforts to locate missing
individuals under the rubble, as reported by <strong>Al Mayadeen</strong>'s correspondent.
The correspondent also noted that occupation aircraft destroyed a
mosque in the al-Tuffah neighborhood, east of the city in Gaza.</p>
<p>There were also dozens of injuries as a result of the violent
artillery shelling on civilian homes in Jabalia and its camp since
Sunday at dawn, in addition to several martyrs and injuries after the
occupation committed a <a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/third-massacre-in-jabalia-camp--iof-destroy-entire-residenti">new massacre in the middle of the Jabalia camp</a>.</p>

<p><strong>Al Mayadeen</strong>'s correspondent also highlighted an intense and aggressive Israeli artillery bombardment in the north of the <a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/-israel--commits-new-massacre-in-jabalia-camp">Jabalia refugee camp</a>, the Zaytoun neighborhood, and Khan Yunis.</p>
<h2>Civilians deliberately targeted</h2>
<p>The correspondent noted that the occupation forces bombed a house in
the al-Nadim area in the Zaytoun neighborhood, east of Gaza City.
Additionally, the correspondent reported a death toll of two martyrs and
10 injuries resulting from an Israeli bombing that targeted a house in
the Khan Yunis refugee camp.</p>
<p>Our correspondent adds that the Israeli raids continue on northern
Deir al-Balah and northern al-Qarara, where the occupation is trying to
raid agricultural lands, adding that the occupation also targeted a
house in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood with five missiles.</p>
<p>Martyrs and others were injured in an Israeli bombing targeting a
house near the Abu Iskander Shamay area of Gaza City, causing damage to
several schools accommodating displaced individuals in the vicinity. In
response, the Civil Defense reported a significant number of casualties
in the courtyard of the <a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/hamas-slams-hrw-report-on-baptist-hospital--invites-org--to">Baptist Hospital in Gaza</a>, resulting from the recent occupation-induced massacres.</p>
<p>The spokesperson for the Civil Defense Directorate, Major Mahmoud
Basal, said their crews were not spared from the Israeli bombing, and
there is a clear and very significant deficiency in the Civil Defense
Directore's capabilities and mechanisms.</p>
<p>"We cannot deal with the bodies under the rubble in Gaza and the
northern Gaza Strip, and we are still calling for the necessity of
introducing crews to support the civil defense apparatus in Gaza, noting
that there are thousands of martyrs still under the rubble and we
cannot recover them," he said.</p>
<h2>Deadly strikes on Gaza</h2>
<p>Earlier today, <strong>Al Mayadeen</strong>'s correspondent in Gaza reported that <a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/-israel--massacres-hundreds-in-residential-areas-across-gaza">"Israel" continues to bombard Gaza</a>, most notably the southern areas of Deir el-Balah in central Gaza, noting several explosions and gunfire in these areas.</p>
<p>Our correspondent added that <a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/-israel--carries-out-deadly-strikes-on-gaza--killing-dozens">Israeli shelling targeted several residential homes</a>
in Deir el-Balah and bombed a house in the Daraj neighborhood in Gaza,
resulting in the deaths of dozens and injuring others. He added that the
Israeli airstrikes at the moment are concentrated in central Deir

<p>He pointed out that the Israeli occupation forces established a ring
of fire around the shelter centers and towers of Sheikh Zayed near the
Indonesian Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip.</p>
<p>He also highlighted that intensive Israeli ground and air bombardment had been continuously targeting the eastern areas of the <a href="https://english.almayadeen.net/news/politics/deadly-night-in-gaza:-israeli-airstrike-on-caf%C3%A9-kills-at-lea">Khan Yunis</a> governorate since this morning.</p></div></div></div>
