All injured by Israeli fire at Al-Nabulsi roundabout likely to die: Palestinian doctor
At least 112 Palestinians killed when Israeli forces shell Palestinians waiting for humanitarian aid south of Gaza City
By Ahmed Asmar
ANKARA (AA) - A Palestinian doctor said Thursday that all of the Palestinians who were injured in an Israeli army's shooting at the Al-Nabulsi roundabout area, south of Gaza City, are likely to die from critical health conditions and severe injuries.
The nursing director at the Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza said most of the injured who were taken to his hospital are in critical condition and most are "likely to get martyred."
"Most of the injured cases of the Israeli shelling on Al-Nabulsi roundabout area are in the upper parts of their bodies," he said.
The facility received several injured and dead Palestinians from the attack on residents waiting for humanitarian aid.
The doctor noted that the hospital is suffering a severe shortage of medical equipment and is facing difficulties in saving lives.
Early Thursday, Israeli forces shelled a crowd of Palestinians waiting for humanitarian aid south of Gaza City at the "al-Nabulsi Roundabout" area, killing at least 112 Palestinians and injuring 760 others, according to the Gaza-based Health Ministry.
Israel has launched a deadly military offensive on the Gaza Strip since an Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas attack, which Tel Aviv said killed less than 1,200 people.
At least 30,035 Palestinians have since been killed and 70,457 others injured amid mass destruction and shortages of necessities.
Israel has also imposed a crippling blockade on the Gaza Strip, leaving its population, particularly residents of northern Gaza, on the verge of starvation.
The Israeli war has pushed 85% of Gaza’s population into internal displacement amid acute shortages of food, clean water and medicine, while 60% of the enclave's infrastructure has been damaged or destroyed, according to the UN.
Israel is accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice. An interim ruling in January ordered Tel Aviv to stop genocidal acts and take measures to guarantee that humanitarian assistance is provided to civilians in Gaza.
