Israeli forces raided one of the last functioning hospitals in Gaza’s north and bombarded the south with airstrikes that killed at least 28 Palestinians, pressing ahead with their offensive with renewed backing from the US, despite rising international alarm.
A strike on a home in Rafah where displaced people were sheltering killed at least 25 people, including a two-year-old boy and his newborn sister, and another strike killed at least three people, according to Associated Press journalists who saw the bodies arrive at two local hospitals early on Tuesday.
Rafah, which is in the southern part of Gaza where Israel has told Palestinians to seek shelter, has been repeatedly bombarded in recent days, as Israel has struck what it says are militant targets across the territory, often killing large numbers of civilians.
The military said on Tuesday it had killed a prominent Hamas financier in an airstrike in Rafah, without specifying when it happened or if others were killed or hurt.
Meanwhile, fierce battles also raged in northern Gaza, where Hamas continues to put up stiff resistance across what is now a wasteland, seven weeks after Israeli tanks and troops stormed in.
Israel’s bombardment of the urban Jabaliya refugee camp on Tuesday killed at least 27 people and wounded more than 100, according to Munir al-Boursh, a senior official at the Hamas-run Health Ministry.
In central Gaza, at least 15 people were killed in strikes overnight, according to hospital records. Among the dead were a mother and her four children, who were killed as they sat around a fire, according to an Associated Press reporter who filmed the aftermath.
Israeli forces raided the Al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza City overnight, according to the church that operates it, destroying a wall at its front entrance and detaining most of its staff.
The facility was the scene of an explosion early in the war that killed dozens of Palestinians, and which an Associated Press investigation later determined was likely caused by a misfired Palestinian rocket.
Don Binder, a pastor at St George’s Anglican Cathedral, which runs the hospital, said the raid left just two doctors, four nurses and two caretakers to tend to more than 100 seriously wounded patients, with no running water or electricity.
Gaza doctor: ‘Why do you attack hospitals?’
Dr Ahmed al-Moghrabi at the Nasser hospital in southern Khan Younis says the situation there is a “disaster” with the facility overwhelmed with wounded. Despite that, Israeli forces continue to attack the facility.
“It’s like a horror movie, catastrophe. I don’t know how they can attack hospitals. Maybe the outside world should ask the Israeli side ‘why do you attack hospitals?’ Two days ago, they attacked the paediatric and maternity buildings and there were victims. What is the message from the Israelis by attacking hospitals?” he told Al Jazeera.
Al-Moghrabi estimated about 30,000 people are currently sheltering at Nasser hospital. “Please stop this war,” he said.
Hezbollah, Qassam Brigades claim attacks on Israeli army vehicles
The armed wing of Hamas says that it targeted an Israeli Merkava tank, a troop carrier and an army bulldozer with its Yasin-105 rockets in and around the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis.
For its part, Lebanon’s Hezbollah claims that it targeted and destroyed an Israeli tank near the Malkia kibbutz, “which led to its destruction and the death and injury of those in it,” the group said in a statement.
