Palestinian people are facing ‘most brutal’ catastrophe in modern times
The Palestinian people are facing a historical catastrophe, the most brutal in modern times, as Israeli massacres continue, the Government Media Office (GMO) in Gaza has said. The Palestinian Information Centre has reported that the GMO emphasised that the Israeli occupation army has persisted in its brutal attacks against civilians, displaced individuals, journalists, medical teams, civil defence teams and those securing humanitarian aid, resulting in the killing of over 110 Palestinians in the past few hours and days.

The GMO chief noted that the occupation army bombed the field headquarters of Gaza’s civil defence teams, taking the total of civil defence workers killed to 94.
At least 43 Palestinians were killed when Israel bombed displaced people in the Khalil Awida School in Beit Hanoun. Another 42 were killed in an attack on Al-Nuseirat refugee camp, while Al-Bureij camp saw the Al-Qurenaoui family targeted.
With its bombing of Deir Al-Balah municipality, which killed the Mayor, Dr Diab Al-Jaru, and eleven other people, the occupation regime, said the GMO, is trying to create an administrative and governmental vacuum in Gaza. Four mayors have been killed in Gaza since October last year.
The number of personnel in the humanitarian aid sector killed by the occupation regime has risen to 722 with the killing of 15 more individuals. The GMO noted that the occupation army continues to target medical teams and hospitals, particularly Kamal Adwan Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip.
In closing, it warned that the occupation regime continues to pursue a systematic starvation policy against over 2.4 million Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. Crossing points are kept closed and humanitarian aid, including food and medicines, is blocked, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis.
