Israeli warplanes carried out a series of strikes across central and northern Gaza on Wednesday, hitting Gaza City's Shati refugee camp and destroying the Al-Muttaqin Mosque, which Israel claimed was being used as a Hamas weapons storage facility — a justification Palestinian officials dismissed as a false pretext. A separate strike on Nuseirat refugee camp (a densely populated displacement settlement in central Gaza) killed one person and wounded at least 20 others in a busy market, while fires broke out across Shati, forcing dozens of families to flee. The attacks come as Gaza's humanitarian situation continues to deteriorate sharply: hospitals are running out of dialysis supplies, more than 5,000 amputees are waiting for prosthetics, and the UN estimates over 43,000 people have sustained life-changing injuries since the war began.
