The Israeli war of genocide against Gaza has entered its 238th day, with the occupation forces continuing to commit a genocidal war in the Gaza Strip, by launching dozens of air strikes, artillery shelling, and bloody massacres against civilians.
Martyrs in Bureij camp
The occupation continues its aggression against Gaza, as the Palestinian Information Center reported that 12 Palestinians were martyred today, Friday, in a raid launched by occupation aircraft on two homes in the Bureij refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip.
5 massacres within 24 hours
The occupation forces committed 5 massacres against families in the Gaza Strip, including 60 martyrs and 280 injuries during the past 24 hours, according to the Ministry of Health in Gaza.
The Ministry said in its update today: The toll of the aggression has risen to 36,284 martyrs and 82,057 injuries since the seventh of last October.
More than 98% of Gaza's bakeries stopped working
The government media office in Gaza said: “It has been 24 days since the occupation army occupied the Rafah land crossing, and closed the Kerem Shalom crossing, which led to the occurrence of complex humanitarian crises, and as a result prevented 22,000 wounded and sick people from traveling to receive treatment outside the Gaza Strip.” And preventing the entry of humanitarian aid and food supplies into the Gaza Strip.”
The government office added that there are more than 2 million displaced people in the Gaza Strip who live mainly and solely on aid, especially in light of the loss of a quarter of a million family heads of their jobs due to the “Israeli” aggression. This has left them without cash, which greatly increases the chances of deepening the famine.
The office stated that the occupation prevents the entry of fuel, cooking gas, and medicine as part of its policy of pressure on civilians, children, and women. This is a crime against humanity, which led to more than 98% of the bakeries in the Gaza Strip stopping work due to the lack of cooking gas.
The government media office indicated that more than 700 water wells stopped working in the Gaza Strip due to being targeted by the “Israeli” army and the prevention of the entry of fuel, which enhances the chances of deepening both famine and thirst against civilians, especially against children and women.
Prominent resistance operations
The Palestinian resistance continues to confront the Zionist forces penetrating into several areas of Gaza. The Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), announced today, Friday, that two Zionist soldiers were sniped and directly wounded in the vicinity of the Sheikh Zayed roundabout in the northern Gaza Strip.
The Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement, also announced the targeting of a gathering of soldiers and occupation vehicles penetrating the vicinity of Salah al-Din Gate, south of Rafah, with mortar shells.
Al-Qassam publishes an audio message to an Israeli prisoner
Today, Friday, the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), published an audio message from an Israeli prisoner demanding that Netanyahu’s government release the prisoners detained in Gaza.
She said: “Do not put our fate in the hands of Netanyahu and the war council... Save us... The people must decide.”
Withdrawal of the occupation forces from northern Gaza
The occupation forces withdrew on Friday morning from all areas of the northern Gaza Strip after a military operation targeting the Jabalia camp, according to Al Jazeera Net.
Al Jazeera said: The occupation forces withdrew from Tal al-Zaatar, the Beit Lahia project, Beit Hanoun, and all areas of the northern Gaza Strip.
Gaza Civil Defense spokesman Mahmoud Basal confirmed to Al Jazeera that more than a thousand homes were destroyed in the Jabalia camp in the northern Gaza Strip, after a military operation that continued in the area for 20 days.
10 Israeli soldiers killed in Jabalia
Occupation Army Radio announced that 10 soldiers were killed during the operation carried out by the 98th Division in the Jabalia camp in the northern Gaza Strip over a period of 20 days. This occurred after the occupation army withdrew on Friday morning from the northern Gaza Strip, according to what Al Jazeera reported.
Haniyeh: The resistance informed the mediators that it would not give up its demands
The head of the Political Bureau of the Islamic Resistance Movement “Hamas,” Ismail Haniyeh, called for an Arab position and collective action to exploit this strategic opportunity provided by the “Al-Aqsa Flood” battle. He urges to mobilize the Arab situation in confronting the fascist Zionist enemy, embrace and participate with the Palestinian people in their resistance, and confront the policy of normalization.
Haniyeh stressed, during his speech at the Arab National Conference in Beirut, that the battle of the “Al-Aqsa Flood” raised the Palestinian cause to an unprecedented level in the world. He said that the “Al-Aqsa Flood” opened the door to embodying recognition of the rights of the Palestinian people, most importantly their right to their own state on their land and soil, which is what All diplomatic and political efforts that were devoid of power factors failed.
He added: The flood dealt a blow to the entity's strategic value as a policeman for the region, and deprived it of the deterrence advantage that it had prided itself on. And here the Israeli entity is losing global public opinion, as the intellectual terrorism it practices through the so-called anti-Semitic laws has failed to contain the global public support for the rights of the Palestinian people.
Haniyeh directed his message to those talking about the day after the battle, saying that they will be suffocated by the rope of their illusions, and that they will not find among our people anyone who would accept an alternative to resistance. The aspirations of those lurking in the resistance and the Mujahideen will be disappointed, their illusions will vanish, and they will not see the light as long as our people and our nation remain immortal.
Regarding what is said about a new Zionist position on the exchange and ceasefire deal, the movement’s leader confirmed that the resistance once again informed the mediators that the established rules of the resistance factions’ position cannot be waived. Hamas's demands are summarized in stopping the permanent aggression, the comprehensive withdrawal of the occupation army from Gaza, lifting the siege, reconstruction, and an honorable prisoner exchange deal. All of this is on the path to achieving the rights and aspirations of our Palestinian people for freedom, return and independence.
France cancels the participation of occupation companies in a defense exhibition
The French authorities decided to cancel the participation of 74 companies affiliated with the Zionist occupation in the “Eurosatori” international exhibition for land defense and security scheduled for next June 17.
Cog Events, the company organizing the exhibition, told Agence France-Presse: By decision of the government authorities, there will not be any exhibition pavilion for the “Israeli” military industries sector at the Eurosatory 2024 exhibition, as 74 Israeli companies were scheduled to display their equipment during it.
Neither the organizing company nor the Ministry of the Armed Forces, under whose auspices the show is being held, specified the reasons for the decision, but according to Agence France-Presse, it comes a few days after the occupation army bombed the tents of the displaced in Rafah. The aggression against the camps for the displaced left dozens of martyrs and wounded, which sparked anger. Internationally, it prompted the organization of many demonstrations in France against the aggression on the Gaza Strip.
Belgian university suspends cooperation with the occupation

University President Herman Van Goethem said in a statement yesterday, Thursday: The reason for suspending the agreements is the cooperation of the institutions that the university shares with the “Israeli” military authorities.
