IOF Kills 50 Palestinians since Morning Hours in Gaza
The attack left at least 32 people martyred and over 100 others injured, many of them critically.
Medical and local sources confirmed that the Israeli strikes targeted two separate aid distribution points, one located on Al-Tina Street in southern Khan Younis and another in the Al-Shakoush area in northern Rafah, both situated within the so-called 'humanitarian zone' overseen by the U.S. military.
The wounded and deceased were transported to Nasser Medical Complex, where overwhelmed medical teams struggled to cope with the scale of the casualties amid ongoing shortages in medicine and equipment.
According to the Gaza Ministry of Health, the total death toll across the Strip has reached 50 martyrs since dawn today, following a series of airstrikes and artillery shelling that struck civilian homes and areas.
Meanwhile, the Israeli occupation continues its relentless and systematic war crimes against civilians in Gaza, employing daily bombardments, executions, and home demolitions.
These attacks are accompanied by an ongoing, suffocating blockade, preventing the entry of food, medical aid, and other essential supplies. As a result, Gaza is experiencing an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe, with daily cases of exhaustion, malnutrition, and preventable deaths mounting steadily.
This latest massacre comes as more than two million Palestinians remain trapped in Gaza under siege, facing total collapse of the health system, hunger, and violence, while the international community continues to stand by in silence.

5 More Palestinians Starved to Death over the Past 24 Hours
DaysofPal- The director of al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza stated Sunday that five Palestinians, including two children, have died of hunger in the past 24 hours, in a tragic development that reflects the worsening humanitarian catastrophe in the besieged enclave. The statement came after a severe famine overwhelmed civilians in the Gaza Strip, whereas Gaza's hospitals, struggling under dire conditions, documented the deaths due to severe malnutrition amid a critical shortage of food and medical aid. This escalation comes as medical reports indicate that at least 21 children have died over the past three days from hunger and malnutrition in various hospitals across the Strip, including Al-Aqsa Hospital and Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis. The Gaza Ministry of Health estimates that more than 127 people, including 85 children, have died of hunger since the beginning of the war, amid the near-total collapse of the healthcare system. Doctors on the ground confirmed that they are now unable to provide proper medical care due to the deterioration of their health from hunger, with reports of some medical staff collapsing during surgeries due to extreme weakness. Moreover, international organizations, including the World Health Organization and UNICEF, have warned that Gaza is facing a man-made famine, with more than one million people suffering from extreme food insecurity. They also warned that the ongoing Israeli blockade and the closure of humanitarian crossings are preventing aid from entering, pushing the humanitarian crisis to catastrophic levels. Global calls continue for the immediate lifting of the blockade on Gaza and for the urgent entry of humanitarian aid, to halt the looming famine that threatens the lives of hundreds of thousands of residents, mostly children, women, and the elderly.

IOF Kills 20, injure 300 starving people in Northern Gaza
DaysofPal- Israeli occupation forces (IOF) killed 20 Palestinians and injured 150 others in targeted attacks on aid seekers in al-Sudaniya area of northwest Gaza, according to health officials and eyewitnesses. The shooting took place near a distribution point run by the controversial Gaza Humanitarian Foundation GHF. The area, referred to by residents, has become a recurring site of chaos and death as desperate civilians risk their lives to receive basic supplies. Eyewitnesses described the incident as a massacre, saying: 'They opened gunfire on people in a completely frenzied manner.' Medical sources confirmed that the majority of injuries were caused by live ammunition, with many victims shot in the head and chest. The Israeli military claimed that troops fired only warning shots after some individuals allegedly crossed into a designated combat zone. However, UN officials and humanitarian observers strongly dispute this account, calling the repeated violence at aid sites part of a dangerous and dehumanizing pattern. Since the GHF system was launched in late May, over 1,050 Palestinians have been killed and nearly 5,000 injured while attempting to access food and medical supplies at GHF-run distribution centers across the Gaza Strip. Rights organizations have described the GHF model as a 'kill zone,' accusing Israel of using starvation and aid as tools of warfare. International criticism of Israeli atrocities at the aid distribution points continues to mount as UN agencies, humanitarian groups, and foreign governments have demanded an immediate overhaul of the aid delivery mechanism, warning that civilians are being systematically endangered. The growing death toll has intensified calls for an independent investigation into what many see as war crimes. Philippe Lazzarini, head of UNRWA, has warned that such models of aid distribution are creating 'dystopian and deadly environments' and has urged an urgent return to safe, neutral aid corridors. The Gaza Strip remains under total blockade and heavy bombardment for the 658th consecutive day. With widespread famine, collapsed healthcare, and escalating violence at aid sites, humanitarian officials warn that Gaza's crisis is rapidly surpassing even the bleakest projections.

Gaza Baby Formula Crisis Threatens 100,000 Infants
DaysofPal — Over 100,000 children in the Gaza Strip, including 40,000 infants under the age of one, are facing imminent death due to a total absence of baby formula and nutritional supplements, the Government Media Office in Gaza warned on Saturday. In a grim statement, the office described the crisis as a 'massacre in slow motion,' blaming Israel's ongoing blockade and closure of all border crossings for intentionally starving the territory's youngest and most vulnerable. 'Mothers have been forced to feed their babies only water for days,' the statement read, adding that hospitals and health centers are reporting a sharp rise in cases of acute and life-threatening malnutrition. According to health officials, at least 122 people — including 83 children — have died from starvation and malnutrition amid the collapse of Gaza's medical infrastructure and severe shortages of essential food items. Calling the crisis 'a shocking warning issued in the name of humanity and global conscience,' the media office demanded the immediate and unconditional opening of all crossings, urgent entry of baby formula and supplements, and a swift international response to halt what it called a 'deliberate extermination campaign against children.' The statement also held the Israeli government and its international allies 'fully responsible for a looming crime against humanity,' warning that the continued global silence constitutes 'explicit complicity in the genocide of Gaza's children.' Since Israel launched its military offensive on Gaza on October 7, 2023, more than 59,700 Palestinians have been killed — the majority women and children. The bombardment has devastated the enclave, collapsed its healthcare system, and triggered mass hunger. In November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, citing war crimes and crimes against humanity. Israel also faces a separate genocide case at the International Court of Justice. Shortlink for this post:
