Yesterday, the Israeli army launched a massive attack on the western city of Khan Yunis in the central Gaza Strip, announcing the destruction of 50 “targets” in just 6 minutes, according to the Russian Sputnik agency.
According to the Israeli Channel 14, yesterday, the Israeli army carried out intensive military operations in the city, and destroyed places of Hamas’ infrastructure in the city, and gathering points for the movement’s forces that were present in the city itself. She said that the Israeli army began attacking some targets from the air, followed by surprise ground forces that raided some Hamas targets.
Aid convoys
In the latest attack on aid convoys, authorities in Gaza said that at least eight people were killed yesterday, when a truck carrying food aid from a Kuwaiti charitable organization was subjected to an air strike. In a morgue outside a hospital in Rafah, a group of women wept and sobbed next to rows of corpses belonging to the Abu Anza family, 14 of whom were killed in an Israeli air strike overnight.
The situation has become more difficult in northern Gaza with no aid arriving. Health authorities there said that 15 children died yesterday due to malnutrition or dehydration inside Kamal Adwan Hospital following the electricity was cut off in the intensive care unit. Staff fear for the lives of six other children there.
Hunger and despair
World Health Organization spokesman Christian Lindmeier said: “People in the Gaza Strip are risking their lives in order to obtain food, water and other necessities, in light of the hunger and despair that conditions have reached amid the continuing Israeli attack. The regime in Gaza is on the verge of collapse, and even more than Therefore, all lifelines in Gaza were cut off in one way or another.”
Tragic situation
He continued: “This created a tragic situation, as happened Thursday when more than 100 people were killed while seeking humanitarian aid.”
The areas of the Gaza Strip are suffering from a tragic situation due to the complete loss of food supplies, clean water sources, and the stifling siege. The Gaza Ministry of Health recorded the death of a number of citizens due to hunger and malnutrition. Washington dropped 38,000 meals via airdrop by military aircraft into Gaza on Saturday, but relief agencies say the impact of this step is limited given the presence of hundreds of thousands of people who are in dire need of food now. Following last week’s incident at the aid convoy, Israel said yesterday that a preliminary review it conducted concluded that “most of the deaths and injuries occurred as a result of a stampede.”
