Gaza: Two Palestinians were killed Thursday evening in a fresh Israeli airstrike on Kamal Adwan Hospital in the town of Beit Lahia in the northern Gaza Strip. Earlier in the day, the hospital was targeted by occupation forces, resulting in the death of a boy who was receiving treatment. Additionally, 12 patients and medical staff members were injured in the attack.
According to Palestine News and Information Agency – WAFA, an Israeli drone conducted another airstrike targeting the perimeter of the hospital, killing a young man in his 30s. These actions are part of Israel’s ongoing offensive on Gaza, which continues despite a legally binding decision by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) ordering Israel to halt its military activities in Rafah due to potential violations of the Genocide Convention.
Since the conflict began on October 7, Israel’s military campaign has resulted in the deaths of at least 44,580 Palestinians and injuries to 105,739 others. Furthermore, more than 10,000 people remain unacco
unted for, presumed dead beneath the rubble of their homes across the Strip.
Palestinian and international organizations have reported that the majority of casualties are women and children. The Israeli aggression has also led to the forceful displacement of nearly two million people, with most being relocated to the densely populated southern city of Rafah, near the border with Egypt. This displacement marks the largest mass exodus in Palestine since the 1948 Nakba.
