Displaced Palestinians in Jabalia targeted by Israeli gunfire
Video obtained by Al Jazeera’s team on the ground in the Gaza Strip shows a group of displaced people in Jabalia, in the north of the territory, coming under heavy gunfire by Israeli soldiers.
The video shows the group, which was in the process of evacuating Jabalia towards the western part of Gaza City, running in terror.
The video also shows many wounded. One man was bleeding from the abdomen as people tried to help him walk. Another, a little girl, is shown bleeding from the neck as she is bandaged in the back of an ambulance.
Earlier, Al Jazeera’s Tareq Abu Azzoum reported that the Israeli army is “systematically working to empty northern Gaza”, after placing the Jabalia refugee camp under siege for days.
Medical sources say 43 Palestinians in Gaza killed by Israel today
This includes a rise in the death toll from Israel’s earlier attack on the Jabalia refugee camp in the northern Strip, which now stands at seven, medical sources told our team.
The Israeli army has placed Jabalia under siege for the last several days, in tandem with stepping up its attacks on North Gaza to a level not seen in months, according to our team on the ground.
Qassam Brigades claims killing of Israeli troops in northwest Gaza
The armed wing of Hamas has said its fighters killed in close combat a soldier in the Gaza Strip’s at-Twam area. The Israeli forces who came to rescue the soldier were subsequently targeted with an antipersonnel bomb, it said on Telegram.
The group added more soldiers were killed and wounded in the bomb attack, without giving any numbers.
There was no immediate comment by the Israeli army. Israeli forces recently launched a new operation in northern Gaza despite the army’s statement in January that Hamas had been “dismantled” there.
Dozens of bodies on Jabalia’s streets as heavy combat continues
Fierce fighting is taking place in northern Gaza as Palestinian soldiers battle Israeli troops after they launched another deadly ground incursion.
Dozens of bodies reportedly line the narrow allies of the Jabalia refugee camp as medical teams are unable to reach them.
Qassam Brigades, Hamas’s armed wing, said one Israeli soldier was killed in close-quarter combat “and immediately upon the arrival of the rescue force, its members were targeted with an antipersonnel ‘thunder’ bomb, killing and wounding them” in the at-Twam area, northwest of Gaza City.
The Israeli military said it killed about 20 Palestinian fighters in air strikes and street battles in Jabalia. At least seven civilians, including women and children, were also killed in the besieged camp, sources from the nearby Kamal Adwan Hospital said.
“The situation is extremely difficult. The bombing and explosions haven’t stopped,” said Mahmoud Abu Shehatah, a Jabalia resident. “It’s like the first days of the war.”
Teacher continues lessons amid destruction in Khan Younis
Eight-five percent of Gaza’s schools have been damaged or destroyed, and all universities have been demolished.
Israa Abu Mustafa is a Palestinian teacher who has built a classroom in the ruins of her house in Gaza’s southern city of Khan Younis. The teacher says she wants to help displaced children continue their education, despite the destruction of their schools.
