Israeli strikes targeting ‘many locations across the Gaza Strip’
The Israeli military is still massively targeting many locations across the Gaza Strip. Since the early hours of this morning, there has been a … wide-scale concentration on Nuseirat refugee camp.
The army is effectively targeting the northern part of the camp, especially high rise buildings, and they are deploying quadcopter drones in a very extensive manner.
We have heard in the past hour more explosions taking place in the camp … in the field hospital that is located close to al-Awda hospital in Nuseirat refugee camp.
Two Palestinians were confirmed injured in that attack, and an elderly man was killed by the fire of the drones in the streets of the Nuseirat refugee camp.
We have been getting distressing calls from civilians who are trapped in al-Urouba school, which is in the northern part of Nuseirat. Witnesses told us that they are unable to get out from the gate of that school because of the Israeli quadcopter drones that shoot anyone who’s moving.
Sixteen Palestinians were killed so far in the camp, while 55 others were wounded.
Video shows moment Israeli quadcopter fires on Gaza journalists
A Palestinian journalist has posted the video below, which has been verified by Al Jazeera’s Sanad agency, showing the moment Israeli forces fired at journalists as they worked in Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza Strip.
Earlier today, Al Jazeera Mubasher correspondent Talal al-Arouqi was injured in an Israeli attack in Nuseirat, and a civilian was killed by flying shrapnel.
Families in battered northern Gaza living off ‘water and dates’
We’ve been hearing lots of tragic stories coming from families who are trapped in the city of Beit Lahiya. Even our colleagues there are still trapped. We’ve heard stories from families who’ve gone days without having any sort of food, and they have been depending on drinking water and eating dates.
Also, civilians have been reporting on their family members being buried under the debris of their houses after being targeted by Israeli artillery and fighter jets without being able to be rescued.
Civil defence members and crews cannot effectively operate in the north of the Strip because this area is no longer recognisable. All the landmarks [in Jabalia and Beit Lahiya] … have been completely changed forever due to the widespread destruction in that area.
These attacks continue to hammer residential buildings, destroying what’s been left of the northern part of Gaza. What’s so grim is that we continue to hear from families that they are not even able to go to Gaza City, given the fact that it has also been under relentless attacks on evacuation centres.
Displaced Palestinians in Gaza City endure harsh conditions
Displaced Palestinians near Gaza City’s Yarmouk Stadium endure harsh living conditions in makeshift tents, where families sit outside patched tarpaulin shelters to shield themselves from the cold and rain.
Children navigate muddy roads, some barefoot, while others help with daily chores such as carrying water or gathering supplies.
Those sheltering in tents endure harsh conditions, struggling with cold weather and heavy rainfall. Limited fuel supplies exacerbate heating challenges, while the worn-out tents, damaged by the sun and wind, fail to provide adequate protection from the elements.
