IDF says it killed 2 suspects who ‘posed threat’ after crossing Gaza ceasefire line Thursday, 1 reported killed in N.Gaza Friday
[IsraelTimes] Palestinian media reports another man killed on Hamas side of Yellow Line, as major hospital in center says it is forced to suspend services due to Israeli curbs on fuel

The IDF said it killed two terror operatives who crossed the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with a rusty iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
ceasefire line on Thursday and approached troops "in a manner that posed an immediate threat."

The shooting has become a near-daily occurrence since the ceasefire was implemented on October 10, with over 400 Paleostinians killed over the past two and a half months, according to the Hamas
..the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,...
-run Gaza health ministry, which doesn’t differentiate between civilians and combatants.

While the IDF insists that most of those it has killed since the ceasefire were terror operatives, Mideast mediators have accused Israel of repeatedly violating the ceasefire.

In the Thursday night incident, the IDF said the Paleostinian suspects approached troops from the 7th Armored Brigade, who called in an Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
that killed the pair.

"IDF forces from the Southern Command are deployed in the area in accordance with the ceasefire agreement and will continue acting to remove any immediate threat," the military said.

The statement did not specify what troops did with the two terror suspects’ bodies. Hamas’s health ministry said Friday evening that Gaza hospitals had over the past 48 hours received three bodies of Paleostinians killed by the IDF, including one person killed in that period and two killed beforehand.

The Hamas ministry did not identify the dead people or say where or when they were killed.

Paleostinian media, including Wafa, the Paleostinian Authority’s official news agency, reported one Paleostinian killed by Israeli gunfire in the northern Gaza Strip on Friday.

According to Wafa, the man was declared dead in a Gaza hospital after being hit in the head by a machine gun bullet near the Hafsa girls’ school, which currently serves as a displaced peoples’ shelter and is located between Gaza City and Jabalia on the Hamas-controlled side of the Gaza ceasefire line. The IDF did not immediately comment on the reports.
So he could have been killed by Paleostinians instead of the IDF? Good to know.According to the Hamas health ministry, 70,945 Gazooks have been killed by the IDF since the Hamas-led onslaught of October 7, 2023, which sparked the war in Gaza. Of those, 410 people have been killed since the start of the Gaza ceasefire in early October, the ministry said.

The figures cannot be independently verified and do not distinguish between civilians and combatants.

Israel says it has killed over 22,000 combatants in battle as of August and another 1,600 turbans inside Israel during the October 7 onslaught. Israel has said it seeks to minimize civilian fatalities and accuses Hamas of using Gaza’s civilians as human shields.

MAJOR GAZA HOSPITAL SAYS IT’S SUSPENDING SERVICE DUE TO GAS SHORTAGE
Hamas’s health ministry also reported Friday evening that Gaza hospitals received 16 people maimed by IDF gunfire over the past 48 hours. The statement did not say where they were maimed or specify the severity of the wounds.

The statement came after a major hospital in the central Gaza Strip said Friday that it suspended services because of a critical fuel shortage in the devastated enclave.

Ravaged by more than two years of war, the al-Awda Hospital in central Gaza’s Nuseirat district cares for around 60 in-patients and receives nearly 1,000 people seeking medical treatment each day.

"Most services have been temporarily stopped due to a shortage of the fuel needed for the generators," said Ahmed Mehanna, a bigwig involved in managing the hospital. "Only essential departments remain operational: the emergency unit, maternity ward and pediatrics."

To keep these services running, the hospital has been forced to rent a small generator, he added.

Under normal conditions, al-Awda Hospital consumes between 1,000 and 1,200 liters of diesel per day. At present, however, it has only 800 liters available.

"We stress that this shutdown is temporary and linked to the availability of fuel," Mehanna said, warning that a prolonged fuel shortage "would pose a direct threat to the hospital’s ability to deliver basic services."

Khitam Ayada, 30, who has taken refuge in Nuseirat, said she had gone to the facility after days of kidney pain. But "they told me they didn’t have electricity to perform an X-ray... and that they couldn’t treat me," the displaced woman told AFP.

"They gave me a painkiller and told me that if my condition didn’t improve, I should go" to another hospital, she said. "We lack everything in our lives, even the most basic medical services."

Hospital official Mehanna urged local and international organizations to intervene swiftly to ensure a steady fuel supply.

Gaza continues to face a severe humanitarian crisis despite the fragile ceasefire that Israel and Hamas agreed to on October 9.

While the ceasefire agreement stipulated the entry of 600 aid trucks per day, only 100 to 300 carrying humanitarian assistance can currently enter, according to the United Nations
...an organization conceived in the belief that we're just one big happy world, with the sort of results you'd expect from such nonsense...
and non-governmental organizations.

The remaining convoys largely transport commercial goods that remain inaccessible to most of Gaza’s 2.2 million people.

The vast majority of Gaza’s residents rely on aid from UN agencies and international NGOs for daily survival.

Gaza’s health sector has been among the hardest hit by the war. Israel has attacked hospitals repeatedly, accusing Hamas of operating command centers there.

International medical charity Doctors Without Borders now manages roughly one-third of Gaza’s 2,300 hospital beds, while all five stabilization centers for children suffering from severe malnutrition are supported by international NGOs.
