About 700 United Nations trucks await on the Palestinian side of a crossing after being inspected, according to a colonel's criticism. The officer denied the implementation of the 'Generals' Plan' aimed at weakening Hamas by depriving food and treating the remaining population as militants.
In a press conference, Colonel Elad Goren, head of the Civil Department of COGAT (responsible for civil affairs in the occupied Palestinian territories), explained that the entrances were closed during the operation in the Jabalia camp due to difficulties coordinating the entry of food with two brigades on the ground.
Goren reported that most of the population of Beit Hanoun and Beit Lahia has left those areas, while about 100,000 people remain in Jabalia. Palestinian sources have indicated that about 700 residents have lost their lives in the 19 days of attacks.
Additionally, the evacuation of Gazans from the Kamal Adwan hospital in Beit Lahia to other centers in Gaza has been confirmed. Doctors Without Borders noted the lack of resources at Kamal Adwan, where there are 30 dead and 130 critically injured patients, without the capacity for adequate care.
The Israeli Army announced that humanitarian aid is not being distributed in Beit Hanoun, Beit Lahia, and Jabalia due to the ongoing military operation in northern Gaza. Medical personnel have urged the need for equipment to treat the injured amid the chaos.
Meanwhile, the Gaza Ministry of Health reported the death of doctor Muhamad Ghanem in an Israeli drone strike and the detention of another doctor. Israeli authorities blame the UN and other organizations for the lack of aid distribution once it reaches the Palestinian side.
