Israeli forces bombed an oxygen station at Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza, killing several Palestinian children, according to initial reports.

Kamal Adwan Hospital, one of the few remaining operational medical facilities in Gaza, has been targeted as the Israeli army continues bombardment to forcibly displace patients and medical staff.

According to Al-Jazeera, journalists from Beit Lahiya reported the killing of "a number of children," though further details are still pending.

A video circulated on X, showing Director of Kamal Adwan Hospital, Dr Hossam Abu Safiya making an urgent appeal for medical aid during a phone call from the ICU.

“If medical aid does not arrive in the next few hours, people here will die. While we wait for help, we are being directly targeted. Enough is enough!” he said.

The relentless military offensive in northern Gaza has created a scene of apocalypse as IDF forces flatten residential towers and refugee shelters to clear the area of Palestinians.

Israeli tanks were also filmed directly hitting Kamal Adwan Hospital.

The occupation forces have forced residents of Jabalia, Beit Hanoun, and Beit Lahia to abandon their tents and move to southern Gaza without food, water, or belongings.

Videos emerging from north Gaza show hospitals overwhelmed with wounded patients and dead Palestinians and many civilian men taken as hostages while women and children are left in a state of desolation. 

Residents in northern Gaza have been forced to starve for over 20 days, with essential supplies completely depleted. The southern and central parts of Gaza are also enduring a brutal military offensive by the IDF.

The overall Palestinian death toll since the beginning of Israel’s war on Gaza has reached at least 43,552 with more than 100,412 wounded. Thousands more remain trapped under the rubble of destroyed buildings.
