Israeli Attacks Destroy Only Dialysis Hospital in Northern Gaza
Israeli occupation forces (IOF) have completely demolished the Noura Al-Kaabi Dialysis Hospital in northern Gaza, the only medical center providing life-saving kidney dialysis services in the region, the Palestinian Information Centre reported Sunday. The hospital served dozens of patients from Beit Lahia, Beit Hanoun, Jabalia, and the village of Umm Al-Nasr. Repeated Israeli strikes had already damaged nearly all its dialysis machines, leaving only eight in working condition before the facility was razed to the ground by Israeli military excavators. Eyewitnesses captured footage of Israeli bulldozers flattening the hospital, which stood as the last hope for kidney patients in the area. Its destruction marks a new chapter in the systematic targeting of Gaza's healthcare infrastructure. Al Jazeera shared a video of the demolition, describing the hospital as 'the only specialised dialysis facility in Gaza' and the latest in a string of healthcare centers Israel has destroyed or rendered inoperable during its military campaign. At the same time, Israeli forces bombarded residential buildings across Gaza City, worsening the humanitarian catastrophe that has unfolded since the war began. Since October 7, 2023, Israel's offensive—backed by the United States—has killed or injured over 178,000 Palestinians, the majority of them women and children, according to Palestinian sources. Thousands are still missing beneath the rubble, while hundreds of thousands more face mass displacement, starvation, and collapsing medical care amid siege conditions. Shortlink for this post:

1,000 Palestinians Killed in West Bank by Israeli Forces Since October 2023
Israeli occupation forces have killed approximately 1,000 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank since October 7, 2023, according to a new report released today by the Palestinian Information Centre. The report details an alarming rise in Israeli military aggression across the West Bank over the past seven months, with 6,989 Palestinians injured in near-daily assaults and raids. More than 17,779 people have been arrested during this period, while 85 individuals have been forcibly displaced from their homes in the West Bank and occupied East Jerusalem. Military Raids Israeli forces have carried out around 22,291 military incursions since October, often accompanied by the destruction of Palestinian property. The report estimates that approximately 4,926 Palestinian-owned structures have been demolished. Military restrictions have also intensified. The Palestinian Information Centre recorded roughly 18,121 military checkpoints and roadblocks imposed during the period, along with 7,756 full or partial closures of Palestinian towns and cities. In addition, 1,375 Palestinians were subjected to field interrogations and detentions by Israeli forces. The report also documented 5,643 shooting incidents carried out by Israeli forces and the demolition of 1,156 homes. Escalating Settler Violence The report highlighted a surge in settler violence, with at least 410 settlement expansion projects initiated and 3,721 attacks by Israeli settlers recorded across the West Bank since October 2023. These developments come amid a broader escalation of Israeli aggression in both the West Bank and Gaza, where the humanitarian situation continues to deteriorate under siege, bombardment, and displacement.
