39 days into Israel's brutal war on Gaza, ceaseless Israeli attacks persist facing fierce resistance in the north. Al-Shifa, Gaza's main hospital, is "nearly a cemetery", according to the WHO, as patients and medical staff are trapped amidst ongoing assaults. Fuel shortages, restricted by Israel from entering the strip, resulted in the death of at least 32 people including six children, while dozens of premature babies and 45 kidney patients in need of dialysis couldn't receive adequate treatment, the UN says.
