Israeli occupation forces have imposed a relentless siege on the northern Gaza Strip, leading to a devastating death toll as they continue airstrikes and artillery bombardments across various areas, including the al-Nuseirat and Jabalia camps, as well as the city of Khan Younis.

Over the past 24 hours, the number of Palestinians killed in Gaza has exceeded 72 due to the Israeli attacks since Wednesday at dawn, primarily in the northern region, which has been under siege by occupation forces for the sixth consecutive day.

Simultaneously, Israeli artillery shelling struck the center of the al-Bureij camp in the central Gaza Strip, as well as the Abu Mahadi area west of the new camp, north of the al-Nuseirat camp.

In the southern Gaza Strip, four Palestinians were killed on Thursday due to an Israeli raid that targeted a house in the al-Fakhari area, east of Khan Younis.

The Civil Defense reported that the occupation forces are enforcing a complete siege on the northern part of the Strip, effectively isolating it from Gaza City and blocking the entry of essential supplies since last Sunday.

They noted that dozens of bodies remain trapped on the roads in the north, unable to be recovered due to the relentless and intense Israeli bombardment.

The Civil Defense also cautioned that evacuating hospitals in the north could result in a total collapse of the health system, exacerbating the suffering of the citizens in the area.

The Government Media Office in Gaza has issued an urgent appeal to the international community and humanitarian organizations to intervene and halt the ongoing 'genocide and ethnic cleansing' in the northern Gaza Strip, where over 125 Palestinians have been killed in the Jabalia camp alone over the past five days.
