Translation of caption : *"An Israeli drone calls on displaced people from the Khalifa Bin Zayed School in the Beit Lahia project to leave the school immediately, as there are more than 10,000 displaced people inside the school. Whoever comes out is bombed and shot"

Dystopian hellscape: drones with speakers ordering displaced people sheltering in a school to be forcibly displaced again.

This is Beit Lahia, which seems to be undergoing an Israeli ethnic cleansing campaign similar to what the IDF just did to the Jabalia refugee camp.

Day 18 of Israel's third ground invasion of the North Gaza governorate.

Overview

This day was marked by the IDF's focus on Beit Lahia, ordering people to leave, opening fire and besieging the area. Beit Lahia is one of the areas in North Gaza where the population has been concentrated when fleeing the ground invasion in Jabalia. Journalists reported that the streets are strewn with dozens of bodies of killed and wounded people that no one can rescue. People are unable to reach the cemeteries for a proper burial of martyrs, who are buried in the roads and streets instead

Healthcare situation

Kamal Adwan Hospital:

• The IDF besieged the hospital, ordered its evacuation, and carried out strikes against it directly and around it, as attested by the hospital's director, Dr. Hossam Abu Safiya (1 2) who issued urgent pleas for intervention to protect the patients and put an end to Israeli crimes.
• The strikes around the hospital destroyed the roads leading to it and severely hindering essential life-saving work of ambulances.
• Kamal Adwan is the only relatively operational hospital. Yet, it struggles with the flow of casualties exceeding its capacity, while also facing a near total lack of medical supplies. The hospital was forced to triage since October 19, leading to many dying from their injuries
• Over 150 patients are receiving treatment inside, including over 15 cases of newborns and patients in ICU
• Communications cut off
• Essential supplies ran out: blood units, medications, tubes we use for chest drainage, and basic medical supplies. And Israel persists in denying these supplies

Al-Awda hospital

• IDF continues besieging Al-Awda hospital, denying life-saving care to casualties. This is the third time the hospital has been besieged since October 7, 2023.
• IDF diretly struck and destroyed the hospital's third and second floors on October 20, also destroying water tanks
