Medical facilities in the northern half of Gaza have been “under relentless bombardment” for the past 24 hours, Doctors Without Borders said. At least two neonatal patients and one adult patient at al-Shifa died after the besieged facility’s power generator shut down on 10 November.

“Israel killed my aunt Haleema this week,” writes Tamer Ajrami, who grew up in Gaza, from Belgium. “Hearing that news felt like being struck by lightning.”

Israeli forces killed at least 14 Palestinians, including four children, during a raid on the city of Jenin and its refugee camp in the northern occupied West Bank on 9 November. Israeli forces fired live ammunition at Palestinians and destroyed infrastructure in the area.

Israel’s weapons makers will be displaying their lethal products at a fair in Paris next week. Smartshooter – which boasts of developing “one shot one hit” technology – is among the Israeli firms taking part in the Milipol exhibition.

The power was cut off at al-Shifa hospital in Gaza City and the Indonesian hospital in northern Gaza after fuel for generators ran out. The generators at Al-Quds Hospital, also in Gaza City, “failed and could not be repaired due to the bombardment and fighting,” the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said in its daily report. “Out of the most critical patients, seven are in the ICU and three babies are in incubators,” the UN said. The Palestine Red Crescent Society, which administers Al-Quds Hospital, said that infants at the facility “are facing dehydration due to a shortage of breast milk alternatives.”

Tens of thousands of people in the northern half of Gaza moved southwards through a “corridor” opened by the military for the eighth consecutive day, UN OCHA said. “Most were able to carry only a few belongings,” traveling by foot or donkey carts, arriving “exhausted and thirsty,” according to UN monitors on the scene. “Israeli ground troops have maintained the effective severance of the north from the south, except for the ‘corridor’ to the south,” UN OCHA added.

Israel said that it killed Ahmad Siam, who they described as a mid-level Hamas commander, on 10 November, Israeli media reported. The Israeli military claimed that Siam and other fighters were “killed while hiding” in al-Buraq school in Gaza City. At least 50 people were killed in the Israeli strike on the school, which was being used as a shelter for internally displaced people.

UN OCHA said that “neither the water desalination plant nor the Israeli pipeline are operational” in the northern half of Gaza and no bottled water has been distributed to people staying at shelters for more than a week. “There is serious concern about dehydration and waterborne diseases following water consumption from unsafe sources,” the group said.

Palestinian resistance fighters are confronting the Israeli military in every part of Gaza they have entered, according to Abu Obeida, spokesperson for the Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas. In an audio message, Abu Obeida said that since the start of Israel’s ground invasion two weeks ago, resistance fighters have partially or completely destroyed 160 Israeli armored vehicles, including 25 in the last 24 hours.

The Qassam Brigades published two videos of its fighters attacking Israeli soldiers and armored vehicles. In one video, its fighters attack Israeli soldiers who had taken up positions in a house north of Beit Hanoun, in the northeast corner of the Gaza Strip. A second video shows resistance fighters destroying tanks and military vehicles in Beit Hanoun and Tawam, in northern Gaza.

Israel announced that five of its soldiers were killed in fighting in northern Gaza a day earlier. Four of the Israeli soldiers “were killed by a blast from a booby-trapped tunnel” in the Beit Hanoun area, according to The Times of Israel. The troops were not inside the tunnel. Israel says 42 of its soldiers have been killed since its ground invasion started.
