At least 22 people, including women and children, have been killed in an Israeli attack on the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza as Israeli forces press on with their ground assault in the area.

As the death toll mounted on Saturday, the Israeli military issued evacuation orders for northern Gaza with instructions for residents near Jabalia to evacuate to the south of the enclave.

Palestinian news agency Wafa reported on Saturday that Israeli fighter jets bombed a multistorey apartment block in Jabalia on Friday night, hitting four inhabited homes and killing 22 people.

At least 30 people were injured, and 14 people remain missing and are believed to be buried under the rubble, according to Wafa.

Reporting from Deir el-Balah in central Gaza, Al Jazeera's Hani Mahmoud said that "powerful explosions were heard in the northern part of the Gaza Strip", adding that many of the casualties were "arriving at the hospital either in pieces or soaked in blood".

The Kamal Adwan Hospital in the north was perilously close to running out of fuel and staff said Israeli soldiers had ordered them to leave.

Reporting from the facility, Al Jazeera's Moath al-Kahlout described the weeklong siege as "suffocating".

The situation is "dire", he reported, as the hospital has also been ordered by the Israeli military to cease operations. But he said it continues to treat patients ranging from those severely injured to newborns.

They want to do what is functionally extermination in that area which the BBC describes as merely "controversial"

Israeli attack on northern Gaza hints at retired general's "surrender or starve" plan for war

Giora Eiland tells Jeremy Bowen that Israel should tell Palestinians to leave northern Gaza before sealing it off as a way of pressuring Hamas.
www.bbc.com www.bbc.com

"Since we already encircled the northern part of Gaza in the past nine or 10 months, what we should do is the following thing to tell all the 300,000 residents [that the UN estimates is 400,000] who still live in the northern part of Gaza that they have to leave this area and they should be given 10 days to leave through safe corridors that Israel will provide.

"And after that time, all this area will become to be a military zone. And all the Hamas people will still, though, whether some of them are fighters, some of them are civilians… will have two choices either to surrender or to starve."

Eiland wants Israel to seal the areas once the evacuation corridors are closed. Anyone left behind would be treated as an enemy combatant. The area would be under siege, with the army blocking all supplies of food, water or other necessities of life from going in. He believes the pressure would become unbearable and what is left of Hamas would rapidly crumble, freeing the surviving hostages and giving Israel the victory it craves.

It was really surprising to see the cheers. Honestly, the world has never been more right side of the history of this occupation as most people are now. Mind-boggling that most Western leaders still fall over backward trying to shield Israel against any valid criticism.

Any public support for Palestine would get enormous applause from the audience. I remember when Colbert had the live show after the DNC and there were protesters interrupting the interview with Nancy Pelosi and when Colbert mentioned one of the demands was to stop sending bombs to Israel, the crowd loudly cheered after that lol. When Ramy Youssef said Free Palestine during his SNL monologue the audience roared in applause. Pro-Palestine remarks get a lot of popular support!

I was surprised because the article mentions it was a Jewish institution who in past has banned cririsim of Israel. So I wrongly assumed the crowd would be pro Israel.

Yes I know many Jews dislike what Israel is doing in Palestine but I am speaking about this specific group, I thought would be more pro Israel.

Enemy tanks are less than 700 meters away from us.
The artillery is shelling us and the quad-copters are controlling the movement of people and firing at us.

Hundreds of warplanes and reconnaissance planes above us.

A state of anticipation of how we will be targeted..

All of Jabalia is under fire, we will all rise at any moment

We are literally living our last moments, O God, grant us a good end.

You will find a lot of amplified voices in this mess that have downplayed or committed to many past atrocities. For example many pro-Bashar Assad accounts are speaking up for Palestine while in the past they were denying the civilian atrocities during the Syrian civil war. I don't expect people to be able to weave through everything, but thats why im pointing it out for you, given the thread rules.

Israeli tanks deepen their push into the northern Gaza Strip

Israeli forces widened their raid into northern Gaza, and tanks reached the north edge of Gaza City, pounding some districts of the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood and forcing many families to leave their homes, residents said.

Residents said Israeli forces had effectively isolated Beit Hanoun, Jabalia, and Beit Lahiya in the far north of the enclave from Gaza City, blocking access between the two areas except upon their permission for families willing to heed evacuation orders and leave the three towns.

Nine days into a major Israeli operation in northern Gaza, the Hamas-run Gaza government media office said Israeli strikes had killed around 300 Palestinians there. It said Israel's bombardment of civilian houses and displacement shelters was intended to force residents to leave Gaza once and for all, which Israel denies.

Gaza's health ministry says dozens of people have been confirmed killed in the assaults on northern areas, with many dozens of others feared dead on roads and under the rubble of houses beyond the reach of medical teams.

Many Jabalia residents posted on social media platforms: "We will not leave, we die, and we don't leave."

Palestinian and United Nations officials say there are no safe areas in Gaza. They have also voiced concerns over severe shortages of food, fuel, and medical supplies in northern Gaza, and said there is a risk of famine there.

An entire population is being exterminated and they are not even trying to hide it.

I'm constantly angry.

People here are trying to move on, "oh no you have to accept it because Trump", "this is the most important election of our time", "it could get worse" as they shout me down cause they don't want to bring down the vibes.

They don't want to accept their guy and gal is participating.

people are actively ignoring this.

A whole population is being wiped the fuck out and people are going out of their way to excuse and ignore it.

I'm filled with so much hate.

Yeah, it's infuriating. I personally know someone who has had over 100 members of his extended family exterminated in Gaza. It's a genocide.

Nothing anyone says to me can convince me to fall in line. I'm filled with the utmost contempt for Biden and the entire establishment allowing this to happen. If you want my fucking vote earn it by at least doing the bare minimum. Instead we only have full throated support for genocide. It's just unbelievable.

My friend who has family in Gaza was able to talk to some of them yesterday and was told that's there's not much left of Gaza and everything within miles from where they live is completely bombed out. She's trying to get them asylum in the U.S. but it's not looking good.

WHO and partners finally managed to reach Kamal Adwan and Al-Sahaba hospitals yesterday after 9 attempts this past week:

- 13 critical patients from Kamal Adwan hospital were transferred to Al-Shifa hospital. The hospital is overwhelmed and still serving around 60 in-patients and receiving at least 50-70 injured daily.
- 6 critical patients and their 12 companions from Al-Awda hospital, who had been earlier transfered to Kamal Adwan, were also transferred to Al-Shifa hospital.
- ⁠The team delivered 20,000 litres of fuel to keep Kamal Adwan and Al- Awda functional.
- 800 blood units, along with essential medicines and medical supplies, and 23,000 litres of fuel were delivered to Al-Sahaba Hospital.

The missions were completed amid ongoing hostilities.

WHO and PalestineRCS drivers were subjected to humiliating security screening and temporary detention at a checkpoint — which is unacceptable.

One-off missions are not enough. There is a sustained need for resupplying hospitals to keep them functioning.

We reiterate our call for sustained facilitation of humanitarian missions and ensuring safety for humanitarian staff; and for a ceasefire.

I recall some users in this very thread (most of whom thankfully banned now) were skeptical that Israel was actually striking hospitals earlier in this genocide. A part of me wants to know what they think of Israel's conduct in this war now because it's abundantly clear that their apologia for Israel has made them look like a fool. On the other hand, I'm glad we don't hear about any of that bullshit in this thread so we don't get distracted by bad actors.

That was the darkest shit I'd ever seen. All the rum in the world can't bleach that image from my mind. There isn't a pit in hell dark enough for the people responsible for and running defense for this.
