Palestinian Health announces the complete collapse of the health system in Gaza
The death toll from the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip rose on Tuesday to 5,791 martyrs, including 2,360 children and 1,292 women, and 16,297 citizens were injured with various injuries, according to a statement by the Ministry of Health in Gaza.
The ministry said, "Israel committed massacres against families during the past hours, in which 305 children, 173 women, and 78 elderly people were killed."
The Ministry of Health's media spokesman, Ashraf Al-Qudra, announced the "total collapse" of the health system in the Gaza Strip's hospitals, and said that the Israeli bombing "put 12 hospitals and 32 health centers out of service, and we fear that more will stop due to targeting and running out of fuel." He added: "The Israeli bombing of health facilities led to the death of 65 medical staff and the destruction of 25 ambulances. The fact that the doors of hospitals in the Gaza Strip remain open does not mean that they are providing service to the wounded flocking to them."
The Ministry of the Interior in the Gaza Strip announced on Tuesday that an Israeli bombing launched by Israeli fighter jets on the vicinity of Al-Wafa Hospital in Gaza City and the Nuseirat Camp (central) “led to the martyrdom and injury of dozens of Palestinians.”
The Ministry of Interior said in a statement: “Dozens of martyrs were killed and many others were injured as a result of the occupation aircraft targeting next to Abu Dalal Commercial Center (on Market Street) in the Nuseirat camp in the middle of the Gaza Strip.”
She added: "Israeli warplanes launched raids in the vicinity of Al-Wafa Rehabilitation Hospital in Gaza City." Anadolu correspondent reported, quoting eyewitnesses, that the Israeli bombing caused widespread destruction in the two targeted areas. The correspondent stated that there were two successive raids on the vicinity of Al-Wafa Rehabilitation Hospital in Gaza City, which led to damage to the hospital.
On Monday night and Tuesday morning, the Israeli occupation forces continued their bombing of the Gaza Strip, leading to the death of 140 Palestinians, the majority of whom were women and children.
A statement issued by the Gaza government's media office stated that the toll was "more than 140 martyrs and hundreds injured on this night in which the occupation committed a war of genocide and massacres, during which it destroyed, with missiles and bombs, dozens of homes on top of defenseless civilians."
The Palestinian News Agency (Wafa) reported that “Israeli raids targeted a number of homes in Khan Yunis Camp, the Al-Qarara area, in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip, in Jabalia Al-Balad in the northern Gaza Strip, next to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, and in Al-Bureij Camp in the central Gaza Strip.”
The Palestinian Agency confirmed that "rescue operations are still underway to extract a number of victims from under the rubble of the targeted homes."
