81 dead in Gaza, fuel crisis pushes hospitals to the brink
At least 81 Palestinians were killed across the Gaza Strip on Tuesday as Israeli air and artillery strikes intensified.
In southern Gaza, ten Palestinians—including children—were killed in Israeli shelling on the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood of Gaza City. Eight others were confirmed dead after an airstrike hit a home on Kashko Street in the same area, the Baptist Hospital reported.
Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis confirmed six more fatalities, including two children, after Israeli forces bombed a tent sheltering displaced civilians in Al-Mawasi, west of the city. Later, five people, including a child, were killed in a separate strike on tents near the Al-Sumoud displacement camp, also in Al-Mawasi.
Smoke was seen rising from the site of an Israeli strike that hit the Badawi printing press in Al-Zaytoun, while artillery shelling pounded eastern areas of Al-Zaytoun and Al-Shuja'iyya.

Additionally, the director of Gaza's Al-Shifa Medical Complex warned that the hospital would cease operations within hours as fuel for its generators runs out. 'Hundreds of patients will become martyrs once the generators stop.'
Gaza's Health Ministry announced that the overall death toll from Israeli military operations since October 7, 2023, has reached 56,647, with 134,105 others wounded, including 116 deaths and 463 injuries over the past 24 hours.
In a post on X, UNRWA Commissioner-General Philippe Lazzarini condemned the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), revealing that since the GHF's implementation, over 500 starving civilians have reportedly been killed and nearly 4,000 injured while scrambling to access food.

Israel kills +140 Palestinians in 24h: Hospital director among victims
At least 142 Palestinians were killed, including the Indonesian Hospital director, and 487 wounded in Israeli airstrikes across the Gaza Strip over the past 24 hours, the Palestinian Ministry of Health reported on Wednesday. Among the casualties, 39 people, mostly women and children, were killed and more than 210 injured while waiting for food aid, according to the ministry. As strikes continued to hit Gaza City, Jabalia, and Khan Younis, the director of Medical Relief in Gaza accused Israeli forces of 'targeting everything in the Strip, especially healthcare teams.' One strike killed Dr. Marwan Al-Sultan, director of the Indonesian Hospital, along with members of his family, when their Gaza City home was bombed. The Health Ministry accused Israel of 'deliberately targeting medical and humanitarian teams,' calling Al-Sultan's killing a 'heinous crime ' against those working to save lives. Since the war began in October 2023, the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics has recorded 57,499 deaths, among them 18,000 children, 12,400 women, and 1,411 medical workers.
