The Ministry of Interior in the Gaza Strip announced today, Thursday, the martyrdom of three of its officers and personnel and the serious injury of a fourth, as a result of an airstrike carried out by Israeli occupation aircraft. The raid directly targeted a guard post belonging to a security headquarters located in the Ansar area west of Gaza City, causing widespread destruction in the area.
The ministry clarified in an official statement that the bombing's victims were not limited to security personnel, but also resulted in the injury of several citizens passing through the area. This military operation comes in the context of a series of attacks targeting security and civilian infrastructure in the besieged Strip.
Medical sources at Al-Shifa Medical Complex confirmed the arrival of the bodies of the three martyrs to the hospital, in addition to a number of wounded suffering from injuries of varying severity. Medical teams in the emergency department are providing necessary first aid to the injured despite severe pressure and lack of resources.
Field reports indicate that this escalation represents a new violation of the ceasefire agreement that came into effect on October 10, 2025. Despite the declared calm, Israeli military operations have not completely ceased, threatening the collapse of existing fragile understandings.
According to statistics issued by the Ministry of Health, the toll of victims of Israeli violations since the start of the agreement has reached approximately 846 martyrs and more than 2,400 injured. These figures show the scale of the challenges faced by the population amidst continued direct targeting and artillery and aerial bombardment.
In a related context, Dr. Muhammad Abu Salmiya, Director-General of Al-Shifa Medical Complex, issued a strong warning about the deteriorating humanitarian and health situation within the Strip. Abu Salmiya described the current conditions as moving from bad to worse, emphasizing that hospitals are no longer able to accommodate the magnitude of the tragedy.
The director of the medical complex revealed that the past twenty-four hours alone witnessed the registration of six martyrs and about 40 injuries, which puts immense pressure on operating rooms and intensive care. He pointed out that the severe shortage of medical supplies now threatens the lives of hundreds of patients and injured daily.
The central pharmacy in Gaza suffers from a deficit exceeding 50% of essential and life-saving medicines, including chemotherapy treatments for cancer patients and dialysis supplies. This severe shortage deprives thousands of patients of their right to treatment and leaves them facing an unknown fate amidst the ongoing siege.
Regarding logistical services, medical sources confirmed the breakdown of the main oxygen station that supplies hospitals in the northern Strip, forcing medical administrations to rely on inadequate alternatives. This breakdown directly threatens the lives of infants in nurseries and patients who depend on artificial respirators.
In addition, the energy crisis stands out as a major obstacle, as power generators have been under continuous work pressure for years without regular maintenance or availability of spare parts. Officials warn of an imminent humanitarian catastrophe if these generators stop due to a lack of fuel and oils necessary for their operation.
Regarding the epidemiological situation, reports noted a widespread انتشار of skin and intestinal diseases among displaced persons in overcrowded camps and shelters. The percentage of skin infections exceeds 80% among the population due to lack of personal hygiene and scarcity of potable water for drinking and human use.
Finally, specialists warned of the emergence of new epidemics such as typhoid and salmonella due to the accumulation of waste and the increasing numbers of rodents and insects in residential areas. The health system in Gaza continues to struggle for survival, amidst international demands for immediate intervention to open crossings and allow urgent medical aid.
The health situation in Gaza is close to complete collapse, and medical teams are working with very limited resources amidst increasing deaths resulting from lack of treatment.
