Gaza Camp Israeli Strike

The health ministry in Gaza reported that an Israeli strike on Saturday killed 71 people at the Al-Mawasi camp for displaced individuals in the southern part of the Palestinian territory.

Al-Mawasi, near Khan Yunis, was designated by Israel as a safe zone after it ordered civilians to evacuate other parts of the Gaza Strip.

The ministry condemned the attack as a “brutal massacre by the occupation,” referring to Israel. It stated that 71 people were killed and at least 289 were wounded, with more victims likely to be found.

The Israeli military said it was investigating the reported bombing.

Ambulances transported the injured to Nasser Hospital in Khan Yunis, the Kuwaiti field hospital in Rafah, and other nearby clinics.

There are still many bodies of martyrs scattered in the streets, under the rubble, and around the tents of the displaced that cannot be reached due to the heavy shelling of the occupation (Israeli army) that targeted places and tents in the in Al-Mawasi, said Gaza’s civil defence spokesman Mahmud Bassal.

Suhaib Al-Hams, head of the Kuwait field hospital, called the attack “a real massacre,” noting many severe injuries, including amputations and internal organ lacerations.

A real disaster is happening now amid the collapse of the healthcare system,” he added.
