Israel Wiping Out Jabalia as the World Watches: 33 Palestinians Killed in One Massacre
Health officials also described bodies scattered across the streets of Jabalia, as relentless airstrikes make it impossible to retrieve the dead and injured.
Gaza (Quds News Network)- In a series of Israeli airstrikes late Friday, at least 33 Palestinians were killed and over 70 injured in an assault on homes near the Nassar intersection in Jabalia refugee camp, according to local reports. Most casualties were civilians, including women and children, as Israeli forces intensified their bombardment across the Gaza Strip.
Medical sources confirmed that 64 people have died in Israeli air raids since dawn Friday, with 45 casualties occurring in Jabalia alone. A separate strike on the Tal Al-Zaatar area in northern Gaza resulted in 33 additional deaths, including 20 children and women. Another airstrike targeted a home in Al-Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza, leaving two dead and several others wounded.
As the death toll continues to rise, the Ministry of Health warned of an unfolding humanitarian disaster in Jabalia. Civilians are reportedly dying from hunger and thirst as the ongoing siege prevents access to basic necessities. Health officials also described bodies scattered across the streets of Jabalia, as relentless airstrikes make it impossible to retrieve the dead and injured.
In a statement released by the Government Information Office, officials condemned the airstrikes as part of the ongoing genocide targeting civilians in Jabalia refugee camp. According to the statement, the latest assault claimed 33 lives, including 21 women, with dozens still trapped beneath the rubble of destroyed homes. The number of casualties is expected to rise as rescue efforts are hindered by continuous Israeli bombardments.
The statement further stated that Israel is receiving full support from the US and European countries such as the UK, Germany, and France, stressing that they are complicit in the ethnic cleansing in Gaza.
Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories, added that acts of extrajudicial executions are part of a broader, systematic campaign by Israeli forces against Palestinians. She emphasized that these incidents are not isolated, but represent a deliberate strategy to destroy the Palestinian people.
As the situation in Gaza deteriorates, there are increasing fears of a complete collapse of health services, especially in northern Gaza, where hospitals have been targeted and cut off from fuel and communication services. The international community is being urged to pressure Israel to halt its military attacks and allow for humanitarian aid to reach those in need.
