The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced on Thursday that the number of martyrs in the Gaza Strip had risen to 28,663 and the injured to 68,395, as a result of the ongoing Israeli aggression since the seventh of last October.

The ministry said that the occupation forces committed 9 massacres in the Gaza Strip, leaving 87 martyrs and 104 wounded within one day.

Nasser Medical Hospital

The Ministry of Health in Gaza confirmed that the occupation turned the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Yunis into a military barracks after demolishing the southern wall and entering through it.

She added, in a statement, that the occupation is targeting the ambulance headquarters and the tents of the displaced, bulldozing mass graves inside the complex, and rejecting all aspects of humanitarian coordination to transport the wounded, noting that dozens of wounded are in critical condition and cannot leave the medical complex.

It stated that the occupation is forcing the remaining displaced people and the families of medical staff to forcibly move from the complex under bombardment and threats, and that it requested the administration of the Nasser Medical Complex to transfer all patients, including intensive care and nursery patients, to the old Nasser building, including 6 patients under artificial respiration.

She added that the occupation forced the complex's administration to keep intensive care patients without medical staff, which puts their lives in serious danger.

In another development, Israeli occupation army aircraft bombed a mosque in Hamad Town, west of the city of Khan Yunis, in the southern Gaza Strip.

The bombing resulted in significant damage to the mosque and the surrounding area.

Since January 22, the occupation army has launched a series of intense air and artillery raids on Khan Yunis, and in the vicinity of the hospitals there, amid a ground advance of its vehicles in the southern and western areas of the city, which prompted thousands of Palestinians to flee the city.

11 martyrs in Nuseirat and the Gaza Valley

In the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip, 10 Palestinians, including 4 children, were martyred and dozens were injured in an Israeli bombing of a house in the camp, according to an Al Jazeera correspondent.

In Deir al-Balah, Al Jazeera’s correspondent reported that the body of a martyr and a number of injured people had arrived at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah, in the center of the Gaza Strip.

The reporter added that an Israeli bombing of a group of Palestinians in the Gaza Valley area, in the middle of the Gaza Strip, led to the death of one person and the injury of a number of others, while the injured were transferred to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital to receive treatment.
