In northern Gaza’s Jabalia area, an Israeli airstrike targeted the Tal al-Zaatar refugee camp, leading to the deaths of 33 people, including 21 women, with at least 70 others injured. The Al-Awda hospital confirmed that 22 deaths had been recorded. The Gaza Civil Defense Agency reported the total number of casualties, while Israeli military authorities stated they are investigating the incident. Since October 6, Israel has ramped up attacks in northern Gaza, aiming to counter Hamas fighters they claim are regrouping there.
The United Nations and humanitarian agencies have raised concerns about the dire situation in northern Gaza. Civilians are facing severe hardships amidst heavy bombardment, with shortages in food, water, and medical aid. Many have lost their homes and have sought refuge in temporary shelters, adding to the region’s humanitarian crisis.
This conflict has put immense pressure on Gaza’s medical facilities, and the ongoing violence has left many families struggling to survive under perilous conditions.
