Gaza: 28 Palestinians killed since dawn today

Medical sources announced the deaths of 28 citizens in the Gaza Strip since dawn on Monday, a toll that is not final, while hospitals in the Strip are suffering from a severe shortage of medical personnel and supplies.

In the latest developments on the ground in the Gaza Strip, a citizen and a child were killed, and several others were injured, as a result of an Israeli bombardment that targeted a tent housing displaced persons in the Al-Mawasi area, west of Khan Yunis, in the southern Gaza Strip.

Medical sources reported that the two martyrs were the young man Saleh Nadi Abu Azra (26 years old) and the child Balsam Ahmed Abu Azra (4 years old). They were transferred to the Kuwaiti field hospital along with a number of wounded people who were injured in the bombing.

In a related development, a young girl was declared dead after succumbing to wounds she sustained earlier in an Israeli airstrike on the town of Beit Lahia in the northern Gaza Strip. This comes amid escalating aggression and continued targeting of civilian areas and shelters.

In Gaza City, two civilians were injured by Israeli drone fire in the Tuffah neighborhood, east of the city.

Meanwhile, the city of Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip, witnessed a horrific crime committed by Israeli special forces, who executed Ahmed Sarhan in front of his 12-year-old son, Mohammed.

Following the execution, Israeli forces stormed the family's home, kidnapped Mohammed and his mother, and took them to an unknown location. This scene epitomizes the brutality of the occupation and its ongoing violations against Palestinian civilians, with no regard for the victims' ages or humanitarian conditions.

For its part, the Nasser Salah al-Din Brigades, the military wing of the Palestinian Resistance Committees, announced the death of prominent field commander Ahmed Kamel Sarhan, head of the brigades' special operations unit, during an armed clash with an Israeli special forces force that raided his home in Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip.

The brigades explained that martyr Sarhan engaged in a heroic clash with the invading force, which aimed to arrest him, leading to the operation's failure before he was martyred during the confrontation.

The brigades affirmed in their statement that the failure of this operation represents a blow to the enemy and a desperate attempt in a series of attacks aimed at breaking the will of the resistance and its leaders.

In this context, the director of field hospitals in Gaza explained that the ongoing campaign waged by the occupation army against the health system in the Strip poses a direct threat to the lives of the population.

He pointed out that malnutrition is worsening significantly, affecting all age groups without exception.

The director also stressed that hospitals are suffering from a severe shortage of medical staff, in addition to a significant shortage of the equipment and supplies necessary to provide the necessary healthcare.
