The Government Media Office in Gaza reported that the occupation army, which has been continuing for a whole month with the "crime of ethnic cleansing and genocide" in the northern Gaza Strip, has so far led to the martyrdom of 1,800 citizens, the injury of 4,000 others, and hundreds of missing persons, in addition to the destruction of hospitals and infrastructure.

He added that the situation in the northern Gaza Strip is unprecedentedly tragic, due to the occupation's targeting of civilians who refused to leave, and its tightening of the siege on them.

On October 5, the occupation army began an unprecedented bombardment of areas in the northern Gaza Strip, before invading them, with a tight siege that put the hospitals in the northern governorate out of service, and halted civil defense services and Red Crescent ambulances.

The Israeli occupation also destroyed all hospitals in the northern Gaza Strip governorate, putting them out of service, while targeting civil defense crews, arresting some of them and putting them out of service as well, in addition to destroying the infrastructure, water networks, sewage networks, road networks and streets, which made the northern Gaza Strip governorate a disaster-stricken governorate in every sense of the word.

The occupation army used the weapon of starving and depriving civilians of water, preventing the arrival of 3,800 trucks of aid and goods to the northern Gaza Strip governorate, and deliberately starving nearly 400,000 people, including more than 100,000 children. It also destroyed dozens of displacement and shelter centers that house tens of thousands of displaced people who fled their homes in search of safety and security.
