Translation:

"I am now in the middle of Jabalia where the IDF jets struck this multi-storey house, reducing it to rubble. Rescue and medical crews are working to retrieve victims with their basic tools as they continue to lift hundreds of kilograms of rubble with their bare hands."

He asks Amer, one of the neighbors, to speak about what happened: "We heard the sound of a violent explosion. Shrapnel was flung to far distances. We came running here to check what happened and found the house collapsed on the heads its inhabitants. We found some wounded people and rescue is still ongoing.

• Islam: How was the sound of the explosion?
• "It was really strong and violent and terrified the children even though we were a distance away from here. We don't feel safe about anything anymore here in North Gaza. The enemy is trying to terrorize us but we tell them: you won't scare us with your bombs, we will remain here in North Gaza. Don't try executing your plans. They have failed before and will fail again. We won't leave this place except as martyrs by the will of God."

"This house (in front of the taregted one) has been struck in the war, and today this other house has been bombed. When and how will the next house be targeted? That is the question we ask as this war continues without an end in sight. It seems that Israel is adopting a clear policy: every night homes are brought down upon the heads of those inside, mercilessly."

At around 3am, Israeli airstrikes targeted a house belonging to the Suwaidan family in the vicinity of Al-Yaman Al-Saeed Hospital in the Jabalia camp, north Gaza.

The house has been extensively damaged, with roofs collapsing on the inhabitants.
