• Gaza’s Health Ministry reports Al‑Rantissi Children’s Hospital was badly damaged and the nearby Eye Hospital suspended services as tanks pushed deeper into Sheikh Radwan, Jala Street and toward Tel Al‑Hawa.
• Local health authorities said 61 people were killed and 220 wounded in the past 24 hours, while residents described houses blown up by remotely detonated, explosive‑laden vehicles in multiple neighborhoods.
• The UN humanitarian office warned civilians are increasingly caught in crossfire and urged protection as active hostilities, displacement and damaged routes restrict access to medical care and aid.
• The IDF accused Hamas of obstructing evacuations and diverting aid, Israeli leaders reiterated goals to dismantle Hamas and recover 48 hostages, and officials cited ongoing threats across several fronts.
