The Israeli occupation forces committed 11 massacres against families in the Gaza Strip during the past 24 hours, while the Palestinian resistance targeted members of the occupation forces in tunnels, and media said that soldiers refused military orders due to their poor psychological conditions in the war.
The Ministry of Health in Gaza reported that 103 Palestinians were martyred and 145 injured in the massacres of the past 24 hours, noting that the number of martyrs of the Israeli aggression rose to 28,576, while the number of injured reached 68,291 since last October 7.
Al Jazeera's correspondent reported that one person was killed and others were injured in an Israeli bombing that targeted the Baptist Hospital yard and other buildings and a car in its vicinity.
Six Palestinians were also killed and 25 injured in an Israeli bombing that targeted a residential square in the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip.
The bombing targeted the house of a member of the Nuwaija' family, an employee of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Refugees (UNRWA), in addition to neighboring homes.
Al Jazeera's correspondent reported that the Israeli occupation forces blew up two residential squares in the Al Amal and Jourat Al Akkad neighborhoods, west of Khan Yunis.
Refusing military orders
The Israeli army announced that 15 soldiers were wounded in battles in the Gaza Strip during the past 24 hours, while Israeli Army Radio said that the Rehabilitation Department of the Ministry of Defense is preparing to receive 20,000 wounded this year after receiving 5,500 last year.
For its part, Haaretz newspaper said that soldiers from the Givati Brigade refused to obey orders and carry out military missions inside Gaza City due to the deterioration of their psychological and physical conditions.
In the same context, the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), said that it killed and wounded members of an Israeli force by blowing up the openings of 3 tunnels in the Qarara area.
Al-Qassam also said that it killed and wounded members of another Israeli force by blowing up a house in the Al-Satar area, and that it targeted an Israeli tank and a military bulldozer with Al-Yassin 105 shells.
In the battles of the large town of Abasan, east of Khan Yunis, the Al-Qassam Brigades said that its fighters killed and wounded members of an Israeli force consisting of 7 soldiers who clashed with it from a zero distance. It also managed to detonate an anti-personnel device in another Israeli force consisting of 5 soldiers barricaded inside a house.
The Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement, said that it, in conjunction with the Ansar Brigades, bombed gatherings of Israeli occupation army soldiers and vehicles in the northern Gaza Strip with a barrage of mortar shells.
The Al-Quds Brigades had previously confirmed that they had bombarded with mortar shells a command and control site for the occupation army in the center of Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip.
This comes at a time when the Israeli war on Gaza entered its fifth month, causing massive destruction and an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe, according to the United Nations, which led to Tel Aviv being tried for “genocide” before the International Court of Justice for the first time since its establishment.
