As the 394th day of the "Al-Aqsa Flood" operation approaches, the occupation forces continue to escalate their aggression on the Gaza Strip, resulting in massacres against civilians, amid ongoing clashes between Palestinian resistance and occupation forces on multiple fronts.
Rising casualties
The Ministry of Health in Gaza reported today, Sunday, an increase in the number of martyrs as a result of the continuous aggression on the Gaza Strip to 43,341 martyrs, with the number of injured rising to 102,105, including many children, women, and elderly, amidst the continued random Zionist shelling.
The sector suffers from a severe shortage of medical resources due to the lack of supplies and equipment, while rescue teams are unable to reach thousands of bodies trapped under the rubble.
During the past 24 hours, the occupation forces committed 4 massacres against Palestinian families in the Gaza Strip, resulting in the martyrdom of 27 citizens and the injury of 86 others, reflecting the escalation of violent attacks targeting densely populated residential areas, causing enormous destruction on both the humanitarian and urban levels.
"UNICEF": "Israel" kills over 50 children in Jabalia within two days
Catherine Russell, the executive director of the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), described last week's events in northern Gaza as a "bloody end," with over 50 children being martyred in Jabalia alone within just two days due to the aggression.
Russell expressed her deep concern about the targeting of children and civilians, calling for an immediate cessation of attacks on residential areas and infrastructure, including medical and educational facilities, and humanitarian workers who are striving to provide assistance to those affected by the ongoing aggression.
23 incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque during October
The Palestinian Ministry of Awqaf and Religious Affairs issued a report detailing the escalation of Zionist attacks on the Al-Aqsa Mosque during the past month, with 23 incursions involving 9,721 settlers under the protection of the occupation forces.
The eastern area of the mosque witnessed religious rituals, including group prostrations coinciding with Jewish holidays, amidst intense calls by extremist Jewish groups to organize collective incursions into the mosque.
In contrast, the occupation forces turned Jerusalem and the Old City into a military fortress and declared a state of alert, while providing free transportation for settlers to reach Al-Aqsa.
Occupation army announces an increase in its casualties in Jabaliya
Amidst the fierce clashes between Palestinian resistance and the occupation army, the "Israeli" army announced today, Sunday, the killing of a new soldier in the northern Gaza Strip, bringing the total number of its casualties to 4 in the ongoing battles.
The occupation army stated in its statement that the soldier was killed by a hand grenade explosion in the battles taking place in the north of the strip. The army had previously announced the killing of two soldiers from the Shaked battalion of the Givati Brigade in similar clashes in the north of the strip, as well as the killing of a third soldier as a result of a hand grenade explosion on Friday night, according to "Al Jazeera Net".
On the other hand, the occupation forces continued intensive air strikes on various areas in the strip, which resulted in the martyrdom of more than 20 Palestinians in the areas of Jabaliya, Beit Lahia, and Rafah during the last hours.
Local sources indicate that the shelling is targeting residential buildings and densely populated neighborhoods, which deepens the human and material losses.
