65 dead and Netanyahu's government is pushing to expedite control over the city of Gaza.

65 Palestinians have been martyred in ongoing Israeli bombardment across various areas of the Gaza Strip since dawn today, including 6 humanitarian aid seekers. Medical sources reported that 37 martyrs fell in Gaza City alone, reflecting the scale of the increasing humanitarian suffering in the region.

In Khan Younis, a woman and her four children were martyred due to bombardment from an Israeli drone targeting tents of displaced persons in the Mawasi area. Other Palestinians were martyred in their tents in the cities of Asda and Hamad, while civilians were injured in bombardment on a water desalination station west of Khan Younis.

3 Palestinians were martyred by the occupation army's gunfire while waiting for aid in Khan Younis, while the residential city of Hamad and the vicinity of the Abad al-Rahman Mosque were subjected to intense bombardment. The director of medical relief in Gaza, Mohammed Abu Afash, confirmed that ambulance teams were unable to reach martyrs and injured individuals in the neighborhoods of Al-Sabra and Al-Zeitoun due to the severity of the bombardment.

Civil defense teams recovered 4 bodies from the rubble of homes in the neighborhoods of Al-Zeitoun and Al-Sabra, while a young man was killed in bombardment targeting a group of citizens in the Shuja'iyya area. In the Shuja'iyya neighborhood, a woman was martyred after an Israeli drone dropped a bomb on the area.

The number of victims from the bombardment of the Amr Ibn Al-As school, which is considered a shelter for displaced persons in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood, has risen to 18 martyrs. The occupation army also committed a massacre against the Shahin family on Al-Jalaa Street, where 5 individuals were martyred, including 3 children.

In the Al-Sabra neighborhood, a mother and her son were killed when a drone targeted a gathering near the Al-Istijabah Mosque. Meanwhile, bombardment of the home of the Al-Amarin family resulted in casualties and injuries, and a 4-story house belonging to the Al-Ja'al family was destroyed.

Israeli drones also targeted an apartment in the Al-Ittihad Tower in the Nuseirat camp, resulting in the martyrdom of two women and injuries to 5 others. In Gaza City and its surroundings, 3 Palestinians were martyred due to airstrikes on a house in the Al-Tuffah neighborhood.

Israeli Channel 12 reported that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government is pressuring the army to expedite the process of taking control of Gaza City. Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz has approved plans to occupy the city through heavy firepower and widespread displacement of Palestinians.

The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) considered Katz's statements a clear acknowledgment of committing a crime of ethnic cleansing, pointing out that Gaza is undergoing systematic destruction and horrific massacres against civilians. The movement questioned the world's silence on genocide with an official declaration from the occupation leaders.

According to the Ministry of Health in Gaza, the toll of the Israeli aggression since October 7, 2023, has risen to 62,192 martyrs and 157,114 injured, most of whom are children and women, along with more than 9,000 missing persons. The siege and starvation have also caused the deaths of 273 individuals, including 112 children.
