Three killed in Israeli shelling on residential building in northern Gaza

Rescue workers say the three men were killed when the Israeli military shelled a group of Palestinians gathered in the vicinity of al-Nada residential towers in Beit Hanoon.

Israeli shelling kills three Palestinians in central Gaza: Civil Defence

Mahmoud Bassal, the spokesman for the Palestinian Civil Defence, says Israeli bombing has targeted a family home in the Nuseirat refugee camp, killing at least three people.


No let-up in Israeli attacks across Gaza

There has been no respite in Israeli strikes. We can hear explosions in Nuseirat refugee camp, where one Palestinian has been killed and a number of casualties have been reported after a residential house was targeted.

Civilians confirmed that the house did not receive any sort of warning before it was completely flattened.

It’s also worth emphasising the fact that the northern part of Nuseirat refugee camp has been significantly damaged, with the Israeli army focusing on demolishing residential homes that overlook the Netzarim Corridor where the Israeli army is stationed.

Meanwhile, we’ve received reports about the continuation of bombardment in the northern part of Gaza where three Palestinians were killed in Beit Lahiya, a border town that has been targeted multiple times by the Israeli army since the war began.

Casualties have also been confirmed in a new attack on the Zeitoun neighbourhood, with people transferred to the Baptist Hospital to get medical treatment.

People there also confirmed that the army has been moving into a new escalating step which is focusing on targeting gatherings of people getting food and water.


Sanitary conditions in Gaza worsening by the day: UNRWA

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA) has warned that disease-spreading insects and rodents are threatening people’s health and wellbeing in the besieged and bombarded territory.

“UNRWA teams are working to help displaced families in shelters stop them from invading people’s already crammed living spaces,” UNRWA said in a post on X.

Rubbish has been piling up across Gaza after Israel seized control of the territory’s two main landfills, east of the cities of Khan Younis and Gaza City.


Israel is restricting water purification materials to Gaza: UN expert

Pedro Arrojo-Agudo, the United Nations special rapporteur on the human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation, has said that every person in Gaza is receiving only 4.7 litres of water daily.

Speaking at a press conference for the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR), Arrojo-Agudo said that Israeli authorities are preventing 70 percent of the necessary materials to purify water from entering Gaza.

He also said that water pollution in the besieged coastal enclave is a “silent bomb with a much bigger effect than the one that destroys buildings”.
