In Beit Lahiya, civil defence teams are still trying to pull bodies out of the rubble, Al Jazeera’s Hind Khoudary reports from Deir el-Balah, central Gaza.

The Israelis targeted a whole neighbourhood yesterday in one of the deadliest nights for the people there in northern Gaza. Seventy-three bodies were transferred to the hospital morgue.

We just received news that the teams were able to rescue a baby girl. The attack is part of the ongoing Israeli siege of northern Gaza, and the military’s attempt to clear the area of about 400,000 residents. Many Palestinians are refusing to leave because they believe they’ll be targeted wherever they go.

People there have endured 16 days without food, water or medicine during the Israeli army assault, which is also focusing on the Jabalia refugee camp.

The World Health Organization says there was also an attack on the Indonesian Hospital last night in which 40 patients and medical staff were injured. The hospital generator was hit, leaving it without electricity. That resulted in the death of two patients who were in critical condition.
