Gaza: Israeli warplanes bombed a five-storey residential building in the Shifa Medical Complex, west of Gaza City, destroying it, and damaging a number of nearby houses, without reports of injuries. Israeli occupation warplanes also bombed a three-storey house southwest of the city.

A Palestinian woman was martyred and five others were wounded when an Israeli warplane targeted a civilian vehicle in the village of Umm al-Nasr in the town of Beit Hanoun in northeastern Gaza Strip, bringing the death toll from the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip to 13, including a 5-year-old girl.

The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced that 114 people were injured as a result of the aggression perpetrated by Israeli occupation forces for the second day in a row, which also led to severe damage to homes, property and infrastructure.

In the same context, the occupation aircraft targeted a gathering of citizens in the Sha'shaa area, east of Jabalia, north of Gaza City, injuring many of them. The injured were transferred to the Indonesian Hospital in the neighboring town of Beit Lahia.

In the West Bank, dozens of Palestinians suffocated during confrontations with Israeli occupation forces at the northern entrance to the city of Al-Bireh. They also fired stun and tear gas canisters extensively at the young men who marched from Birzeit University to denounce the Israeli aggression on Gaza Strip
