Deadly Airstrikes Continue in Gaza as Humanitarian Crisis Escalates

Gaza: In the early hours of Wednesday, at least three Palestinians were killed, and numerous others sustained injuries as Israeli occupation aircraft bombed a house in the city of Deir Al-Balah, located in the central part of the besieged Gaza Strip, according to Palestinian medical sources.

The Israeli occupation persists in its aggression against the Gaza Strip, now entering its 152nd day.

This ongoing assault occurs amidst an alarming humanitarian crisis, with international organizations struggling to mitigate the severity of famine resulting from the prolonged conflict.

The bombings exacerbate the dire situation, posing a severe threat to the lives of hundreds of thousands of people, particularly as food supplies dwindle and casualties mount.

The occupation artillery targeted the Nuseirat camp situated in the central Gaza Strip. Simultaneously, Israeli warplanes intensified their bombardment of the city of Khan Yunis.

The northern Gaza Strip continues to bear the brunt of heavy bombardment, while in
the central Gaza Strip, a child lost his life and several others were injured in an airstrike on Palestinians along Al-Rashid Street.

During the previous night, the occupation fighter jets conducted raids on the town of Al-Mughraqa, located north of the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip. The bodies of nine martyrs were subsequently transported to the Al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza.

According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip, in a preliminary tally, the number of martyrs has reached a staggering 30,631, with 72,043 injuries recorded since the beginning of October last year.

The sources further revealed that the occupation forces committed ten massacres within the past 24 hours alone, resulting in the loss of 97 lives and leaving 123 people injured.

Jordan Reiterates Support for Palestine at Arab League Meeting

Cairo: Jordan’s permanent representative to the League of Arab States, Ambassador Amjad Adaileh, affirmed the Kingdom’s unwavering support for the Palestinian cause, emphasizing its role as a steadfast ally and defender of Palestinian rights in international forums.

Leading the Jordanian delegation at the 161st regular session of the League Council at the ministerial level, Adaileh highlighted, “The essence of Jordanian diplomatic efforts, guided by His Majesty King Abdullah II, consistently focuses on Palestine, representing a just cause and legitimate rights, including the preservation of Islamic and Christian holy sites in Al-Quds Al-Sharif, under the Hashemite custodianship.”

In his speech, Adaileh asserted, “Israel will not achieve security by oppressing Palestinians. True security can only be realized through the restoration of legitimate rights, resolution of the conflict, the two-state solution, and the establishment of a Palestinian state within the June 4, 1967, borders.”

He stressed these princi
ples as foundational for addressing the conflict, the longest in modern human history.

Addressing the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip, Jordan’s statement emphasized the critical need for the world to recognize the catastrophic consequences of halting support to UNRWA in Gaza.

“Only an immediate cessation of the war and the resumption of aid can alleviate the dire situation, alongside the rehabilitation and rebuilding of the healthcare sector,” Adaileh noted.

He also detailed Jordan’s contributions to alleviating the crisis, including the first aid plane landing at Al-Arish Airport 150 days ago and the establishment of a land bridge and airdrops by the Jordanian Armed Forces – the Arab Army, in collaboration with partner nations.

This support underscores Jordan’s commitment to the Palestinian people, guided by King Abdullah II and Crown Prince Hussein bin Abdullah II.
