The Ministry of Health in Gaza reported in another statement on Sunday that 67 martyrs had arrived at the Strip's hospitals (including 5 who were recovered), and 361 injured in the last 24 hours. It said that the preliminary toll of those who arrived at the hospitals since dawn on Sunday until now is 96 martyrs and more than 140 injured as a result of the occupation's massacres and targeting of citizens in the Gaza Strip.
She added, "The death toll from the Israeli aggression has risen to 53,339 martyrs and 121,034 wounded since October 7, 2023, in addition to 3,193 martyrs and 8,993 wounded since March 18, 2025."
Since the early hours of the morning, the occupation army has committed a number of massacres, particularly in the northern governorate, as warplanes targeted several inhabited homes. In the northern Gaza Strip, eight Palestinians were killed and others were injured or missing in an Israeli airstrike that targeted the home of the Maqat family in the Jabalia al-Balad area, according to medical sources.
Sources said that 12 Palestinians were killed, and others were injured or missing in the bombing of the Nasr family home in the Jabalia al-Nazla area, in the northern Gaza Strip. The occupation's bombing also resulted in the martyrdom of 7 Palestinians, and the loss and injury of others from the al-Barawi family in the town of Beit Lahia.
Dozens of violent Israeli airstrikes targeted the Tel al-Zaatar neighborhood east of Jabalia camp, targeting evacuated buildings and homes, causing significant damage to the nearby al-Awda Hospital. Artillery shelling continued across large areas east of Jabalia camp, the town of Beit Hanoun, and the north and west of Beit Lahia.
Medical sources said that 15 Palestinians were killed, most of them women and children from the Jaber, Ghaboun, Madhoun, and Salah families, and others were missing and injured in an Israeli bombardment that targeted a house crowded with displaced people in the Saftawi area, north of Gaza City.
In Deir al-Balah (central), four Palestinians were killed in the bombing of the Abu Saif family home, including journalist Nour Qandil, her husband, and their daughter, according to medical sources at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital east of the city. The sources also indicated that nine Palestinians were killed and wounded in the bombing of the Ayyash family home in the town of Al-Zawayda (central).
In the southern Gaza Strip, 35 Palestinians were killed in Israeli airstrikes targeting displaced people's tents in the Al-Mawasi area west of Khan Yunis at dawn on Sunday. The Kuwaiti field hospital in the area was also damaged, with its operating room shut down as a result of the shelling of the displaced people's tents near the hospital.
Over the past five days, Israel has intensified its genocidal campaign in the Gaza Strip, committing dozens of horrific massacres. This coincided with US President Donald Trump's tour of the region, during which he promised Gaza's Palestinians "a better future and an end to hunger."
Complete siege of the Indonesian hospital
Meanwhile, on Sunday, the Israeli occupation forces surrounded the vicinity of the Indonesian Hospital in Jabalia, north of the Gaza Strip, with drones and targeted its surroundings with live ammunition.
"The (Israeli) occupation is besieging the Indonesian hospital with drones and shooting at anyone who moves," hospital director Marwan Sultan said in a statement, adding that drones targeted the hospital's intensive care unit with bullets.
He noted that a patient was injured after gunfire was fired around the hospital, and stated that doctors were unable to complete the surgery "due to the severity of the situation."
In this context, the Palestinian Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip stated that the Israeli army has intensified its targeting and siege of the Indonesian Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip since dawn today, days after the Gaza European Hospital was put out of service.
The Ministry of Health stated: "After the destruction of Beit Hanoun Hospital and Kamal Adwan Hospital, and the removal of the Indonesian Hospital from service, public hospitals in the northern Gaza Strip are now out of service."
Al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza appealed to the people of the Strip to donate blood and contribute to saving the lives of patients and the wounded. Meanwhile, Mohammed Salha, director of Al-Awda Hospital, confirmed to Arab media that 10 airstrikes on areas surrounding the hospital resulted in extensive damage and destruction. He indicated that there was no intention to evacuate the hospital.
In a related development, a Civil Defense spokesperson in Gaza said Sunday that hundreds of families have been erased from the civil registry due to Israeli bombardment, and that more than 200 people are missing under the rubble and cannot be reached. He noted that those who don't die from Israeli bombardment in Gaza die of hunger.
On Tuesday evening, the Israeli occupation army committed a horrific massacre, killing 34 Palestinians and wounding dozens more, after launching a series of violent airstrikes targeting the Gaza European Hospital and its surrounding area in Khan Yunis, according to statements from the Ministry of Health and the Civil Defense.
The Israeli targeting of the hospital rendered it out of service and disrupted rare specialized services in the Gaza Strip, such as neurosurgery, thoracic surgery, cardiac catheterization, cardiovascular surgery, and ophthalmology, which are only available at the European Gaza Hospital, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health.
The ministry added in a press release on Sunday that a state of panic and confusion has spread among patients, the wounded, and medical staff at the Indonesian hospital due to the army's siege and targeting of the hospital, "impeding the provision of emergency healthcare."
She noted that "the hospital's siege is preventing the wounded from reaching us, as the northern Gaza Strip is witnessing an escalation in the number of massacres against civilians." She added that two patients were injured while trying to leave the hospital.
Most hospitals in Gaza City and the northern Gaza Strip have been out of service as the Israeli offensive continues since October 7, 2023. However, a number of hospitals continue to provide basic medical services under extremely difficult and complex conditions.
Israel is deliberately targeting hospitals and health centers in the Gaza Strip, carrying out a series of raids and arrests of medical personnel, patients, and internally displaced persons inside, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.
In early March, the first phase of a ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement between Hamas and Israel concluded. The agreement, which took effect on January 19, 2025, was brokered by Egypt and Qatar and supported by the United States.
Since October 7, 2023, Israel, with full American support, has been committing genocide in Gaza, leaving approximately 174,000 Palestinians dead or wounded, most of them children and women, and more than 11,000 missing.
