Gaza bloodshed: Israel kills 34 Palestinians since dawn
Shafaq News/ At least 34 Palestinians were killed across the Gaza Strip since dawn, the Palestinian Information Center reported on Friday. Twenty-three civilians were reportedly shot dead on Salah al-Din Road in central Nuseirat as they gathered for humanitarian aid. In nearby Deir al-Balah, an Israeli airstrike struck a residential area, leaving multiple casualties. In northern Gaza, Israeli drones bombed targets in Jabalia, while heavy blasts rocked Beit Lahia amid demolition operations carried out by Israeli ground units, according to Palestinian media outlets. In Gaza City, Israeli strikes flattened entire residential blocks in al-Shuja'iya and al-Tuffah neighborhoods. Gaza this morningA horrific massacre against those waiting for aid. They had gone out in search of a piece of bread, only to return at dawn covered in blood, killed by Israel in central Gaza. #GazaGenocide #Aqsaunderattack #europe #Gaza #PalestineIsraelwar — Palestine Info Center (@palinfoen) June 20, 2025 The latest wave of violence comes amid growing outrage over Israel's repeated targeting of so-called humanitarian zones. Since May 27, more than 420 Palestinians have been killed and nearly 3,000 wounded in areas linked to the 'Gaza Humanitarian Relief Institution'—an entity local groups reject as a 'US-Israeli tool' for controlling aid distribution. The organization is not recognized by the United Nations. Since October 7, 2023, Israeli military operations have killed 55,706 Palestinians—mostly women and children—and wounded over 130,000, according to Gaza's Health Ministry. Amid growing casualties, al-Shifa Medical Complex issued an emergency appeal for blood donations, warning that severe shortages are threatening the lives of dozens of critically injured patients. International criticism of Israel's campaign continues to grow. A YouGov poll in the UK found 55% of respondents oppose the airstrikes in Gaza, while only 15% support them. Among those opposed, 82% believe Israel is committing genocide. Additionally, 65% back enforcing the International Criminal Court's arrest warrant for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Humanitarian Crisis Meanwhile, Gaza has been suffering from unprecedented humanitarian crisis due to the blockade, today on its eleventh day. The ghost of famine is once again looming over Gaza after Israel closed all the border crossings with the war-torn enclave. — Quds News Network (@QudsNen) March 12, 2025 Union of Municipalities of Gaza called on Wednesday for international intervention to secure essential supplies.

Hamas is believed to have 24 living hostages and the bodies of 35 others.

Israeli Occupation Forces Continue Aggression in West Bank's Tulkarm, Ramp Up Home Demolitions
For the 39th consecutive day, Israeli occupation forces continue their assault on the city of Tulkarm and for the 26th day on Nur Shams refugee camp, carrying out large-scale demolitions, infrastructure destruction, and military reinforcements. Israeli forces began on Thursday morning demolishing several residential buildings in the Al-Manshiya neighborhood of Nur Shams, following demolition orders issued a day earlier for 17 homes. The demolitions, under the pretext of constructing a new road to alter the camp's geographic landscape, targeted properties belonging to several Palestinian families. 🎥 VIDEO: Israeli occupation forces demolish 17 homes in Nur Shams camp in Tulkarem, leaving widespread devastation. — Palestine Info Center (@palinfoen) March 6, 2025 Residents were given just two hours to enter the camp and retrieve their belongings, yet occupation forces obstructed the evacuation process, firing live rounds to intimidate them. Since the onset of the assault, Nur Shams camp has faced relentless attacks, with Israeli forces repeatedly raiding homes, forcibly displacing residents, and turning houses into military outposts. The camp has suffered extensive infrastructure devastation, including the destruction of homes, shops, and vital facilities through demolitions, bombings, and arson. In recent days, Israeli bulldozers have razed more than 11 homes as part of a broader scheme to carve out a road from the camp's main square to Al-Manshiya. Meanwhile, in Tulkarm refugee camp, Israeli forces maintain a strict siege, preventing entry and exit while conducting raids on abandoned homes, looting their contents, and forcibly evacuating residents, particularly in the Al-Matar neighborhood. Witnesses report that Israeli bulldozers continue to tear up roads, destroy property, and seal off streets with dirt barriers, including the camp's main northern entrance, which has suffered unprecedented destruction. The occupation has also reinforced its military presence with fuel tankers and additional troops, positioning forces in front of residential buildings seized on Nablus Street, a key route connecting Tulkarm and Nur Shams. This has severely disrupted civilian movement. Additionally, Israeli occupation forces have seized multiple homes in the eastern Tulkarm neighborhoods of Dhanaba and Izbat Al-Jarad, expelling their residents and converting them into sniper posts and military bases. Armored reinforcements have also been deployed from checkpoints at Tulkarm's southern and eastern entrances, leading to further incursions into the town of Anabta and the city's southern entrance before returning to their original positions. With precise & venomous timing, the israelis storm the town of Anabta in Tulkarm in armoured jeeps & military vehicles minutes before Ifta began — Sarah Wilkinson (@swilkinsonbc) March 5, 2025 The ongoing assault has so far resulted in the killing of 13 Palestinians, including a child and two women—one of whom was eight months pregnant—alongside dozens of injuries and arrests. The offensive has also displaced more than 9,000 people from Nur Shams and 12,000 from Tulkarm refugee camp.
