At least 14 civilians killed in Israeli airstrikes on displacement camp in northern Gaza
Doctors confirmed that the victims arrived at the hospital in the early hours of Tuesday following the bombing, which marks yet another deadly attack on civilians amid the ongoing war in the besieged enclave.
The strike is part of the broader Israeli military offensive on Gaza, which began on October 7, 2023, and has so far resulted in 59,029 deaths — the vast majority of whom are women and children — along with 142,135 injuries, according to the latest figures from the Gaza Health Ministry.
Many victims remain trapped under rubble or lying in the streets, as relentless airstrikes and the collapse of infrastructure continue to hinder rescue efforts.
Heavy bombardments persist across the Gaza Strip, especially in areas densely populated with displaced civilians. The humanitarian situation remains dire, with severe shortages of food, water, and medicine. WAFA

'Israeli' army sees 1,000% increase in soldiers seeking help for trauma
The 'Israeli' military's Combat Mental Health Unit has seen a more than 1,000% increase in soldiers seeking treatment for trauma, with the number of requests jumping from 270 per year to approximately 3,000, according to a report by The Jerusalem Post. The unit, led by Lt. Col. Uzi Bechor, provides individualized treatment for trauma-related issues such as post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, and physical symptoms. Bechor attributed the surge in demand not only to the long and intense war but also to a new willingness among soldiers to seek help earlier. The report also highlighted the complex issue of sending traumatized soldiers back to combat and the increased suicide rate among soldiers, linking it to the high-stress conditions they face. According to Hebrew Channel 12, at least 17 'Israeli' soldiers committed suicide so far in 2025, a figure that does not include reservists not on active duty at the time of their death. In 2024, 21 'Israeli' soldiers died by suicide. In 2023, the number is 17.

What is Guillain-Barré syndrome, why is it a growing threat in Gaza?
The Gaza Health Ministry has issued an urgent warning about a sharp rise in Guillain-Barré syndrome cases, particularly among children, linked to worsening malnutrition and infections caused by the ongoing "Israeli" blockade restricting access to life-saving medicine and care. In a statement on Monday, the ministry linked this surge to unusual infections and severe malnutrition affecting the population. The warning follows the deaths of three individuals from this rare neurological disorder, including two children under 15, who could not be saved due to the lack of critical medical treatments. Tests revealed the presence of enteroviruses, different from polio, creating an environment conducive to the unchecked spread of infectious diseases. The ministry emphasized that these tragic deaths are a direct result of the ongoing "Israeli" blockade, which has severely limited access to life-saving care. Guillain-Barré syndrome is a rare autoimmune disorder where the body's immune system attacks peripheral nerves. Symptoms usually start with numbness and weakness in the legs and feet and progress upward. In severe cases, it can cause total paralysis and life-threatening complications like respiratory failure, requiring mechanical ventilation. Other possible effects include heart and blood pressure irregularities, nerve pain, and problems with bladder and bowel control. According to the American Mayo Clinic, Guillain-Barré is a medical emergency that demands immediate hospitalization. Early intervention significantly improves the chances of full recovery. The Gaza Health Ministry warned that without urgent international support, including the delivery of essential medicines and lifting of the blockade, the syndrome and other infectious diseases could spread widely, resulting in a catastrophic public health crisis. 'These are not just deaths,' the ministry stressed, 'they are a warning sign of a looming infectious catastrophe.'
