GAZA STRIP (Dispatches) -- At least 58 more Palestinians were martyred in Israeli attacks in the Gaza Strip, bringing the overall death toll since last year to 45,317, the Health Ministry in the enclave said on Monday.
A ministry statement added that some 107,713 others were injured in the ongoing assault.
“Israeli forces killed 58 people and injured 86 others in five massacres of families in the last 24 hours,” the ministry said.
“Many people are still trapped under the rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them,” it added.
The occupying regime of Israel has continued a genocidal war on the Gaza Strip since a Hamas attack on Oct. 7 last year despite a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire.
The second year of genocide in Gaza has drawn growing international condemnation, with officials and institutions labeling the attacks and blocking of aid deliveries as a deliberate attempt to destroy a population.
Last month, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Zionist prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former war minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its deadly war on Gaza.
The Gaza-based government media office on Monday condemned the “horrific war crimes” committed by Zionist forces in its latest ground assault on the Nuseirat camp, which local media said began on the weekend. 
The media office said 17 tanks and other military vehicles stormed the camp under the cover of drones and air strikes.
The “brutal assault” killed at least 50 people and left 20 homes destroyed or severely damaged, the office said in a statement. 
“We strongly condemn the savage aggression carried out by the Israeli occupation forces against the New Camp in Al-Nuseirat,” it added. “This attack is part of a broader campaign of genocide, systematic killing, total destruction, and forced displacement of civilians.”
As Nuseirat was being heavily attacked, Israeli drone strikes
 hit makeshift camps for displaced people in the so-called “humanitarian zone” west of Khan Younis late  Sunday, martyring 11 people.  
Another airstrike killed at least five people securing the delivery of aid trucks near the “humanitarian zone” in Rafah.
“We were sitting in our tents when missiles suddenly started raining down on us,” Rizq Ashour, 53, a survivor of the bombing, told Middle East Eye. “What do they want from us? They direct us to this safe zone and we come here then they bomb us,” he added.
“They have no humanity.” 
The Israeli military admitted bombing the makeshift camp in Khan Younis’s “humanitarian zone”, claiming they were targeting a Hamas member. Ashour said those killed were civilians.  
Footage posted by local video creator Talal Mahmoud showed cats eating from bodies of Palestinians strewn on the streets near a UN-run school in the Nuseirat refugee camp. 
Ambulances and first responders had been unable to reach many areas under attack due to the heavy Israeli bombardment in recent days.
Meanwhile, Israeli troops continued to besiege the Kamal Adwan hospital in northern Gaza as airstrikes heavily pounded the area around it. 
On Monday, Dr Hussam Abu Safiya, director of the hospital, said tanks and bulldozers approached the western gate under cover of heavy gunfire directed at the facility. 
Bombing did not stop throughout the night, he said, destroying homes and surrounding buildings. 
There are currently 91 hospitalized patients, including adults, children, and women inside the hospital, who are receiving the minimum level of care, according to Abu Safiya. 
“The bombing continues from all directions, affecting the building, the departments, and the staff,” the doctor said.
A video shared by hospital director Abu Safiya Monday appeared to show Israeli occupation forces placing an explosives-laden box near the gate of the Kamal Adwan Hospital in northern Gaza.
The footage shows an Israeli vehicle deploying a wooden box bearing the word “danger” and the sign for a hazard (a triangle with an exclamation mark) outside one of the hospital’s gates.
“Israeli occupation vehicles, using robotic devices, are placing explosives boxes at the gates of the hospital,” Abu Safiya said in a Facebook post.
He added that Zionist forces had recently detonated residential buildings near the hospital using similar explosive devices.
Early Monday, Abu Safiya warned that the medical facility was facing daily Israeli bombardment, which he said was part of a “deliberate campaign of killing and forced displacement.”
