Dozens of Palestinians were killed and injured as Israel continued to bomb hospitals and schools sheltering displaced people, as well as homes and buildings, the official Palestinian news agency WAFA reported.

Northern Gaza

After destroying the Al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza City and putting it totally out of service, the Israeli forces surrounded at dawn on Monday the Indonesian Hospital in the northern Gaza Strip, targeting it with artillery shelling, which led to the death of at least 12 wounded people who were receiving treatment. 

Two doctors were also reportedly wounded.

At dawn, the Israeli artillery bombed the Kuwait School, near the Indonesian Hospital, in the northern Gaza Strip.

Local sources reported that Israeli artillery and tanks, which encircled the Indonesian Hospital and bombarded its surroundings since the early hours of the night, fired several shells toward the Kuwait School, which is sheltering a number of displaced people.

The number of killed and injured, as long as the damage caused by the Israeli bombing, was not known due to the interruption of communications in the northern Gaza Strip.

Ambulances were unable to reach the place due to the siege imposed by the occupation forces on the Indonesian Hospital and its surroundings.

According to WAFA, initial reports speak of dozens of people killed and injured in the bombing.

Southern Gaza

15 Palestinians, including children and women, were killed, and dozens were injured after Israeli warplanes bombed homes near the Abu Youssef Al-Najjar Hospital, in Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip.

On Sunday night, the occupation warplanes launched a series of intense raids in the northwest of the city of Khan Yunis in the southern Gaza Strip, leading to the death and injury of dozens.

Local sources reported that the occupation warplanes bombed with dozens of missiles the vicinity of the residential city of Hamad, northwest of Khan Yunis, which led to the death of dozens of people, most of them children and women, and the injury of others.

Moreover, an airstrike was carried out on the town of Bani Suhaila, east of Khan Yunis.

Gaza City

In Gaza City, a number of people were killed and others were injured as a result of an Israeli artillery shelling of al-Zaytoun neighborhood, south of Gaza City.

The al-Sabra neighborhood was also bombed. Dozens of Palestinians are still trapped under the rubble in light of the rainy weather conditions, which made it difficult for the civil defense and ambulance crews to rescue them.

According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, Israel has, thus far, killed over 13,000 Palestinians, including over 5,500 children and over 3,500 women.
