Gaza: Israeli Occupation Forces Intensify Attacks as Humanitarian Crisis Deepen
On the 83rd day of Gaza's ongoing war, the Israeli occupation forces carried out two deadly attacks near aid distribution points in the southern and central parts of Gaza. Dozens of people lost their lives or were injured in these strikes. The Government Media Office confirmed it is fully prepared to guard aid convoys and help deliver supplies to those in need. However, the so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation admitted it failed to distribute aid properly.

Meanwhile, resistance groups set up ambushes to attack Israeli soldiers, causing further casualties. One source from Nasser Medical Complex said two bodies were recovered after Israeli shelling in the Ma'an area east of Khan Yunis, in southern Gaza. Another from Al-Shifa Hospital reported that eight Palestinians were martyred Israeli in attacks on Jabalia al-Balad, in the north.

New Ambushes Despite the brutality of the aggression, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), previously announced that its fighters had blown up a tunnel on Friday targeting an Israeli infantry force of six soldiers, killing and wounding them in the Murtaja area, southeast of Khan Yunis.

The Al-Quds Brigades added that they shelled a barrage of mortar shells at a gathering of Israeli soldiers and vehicles advancing near the eastern line of Khan Yunis. Since October 7, 2023, the occupying entity, with American support, has been committing genocide in Gaza, killing, starving, destroying, and displacing civilians, ignoring international calls and orders from the International Court of Justice to halt it. The war of extermination has left more than 180,000 Palestinians dead and wounded, most of them women and children, and more than 11,000 missing. Hundreds of thousands have been displaced, many of them children, and the famine has caused widespread destruction.
