On Tuesday July 8, 2025, day 639 of Israel’s genocide against the people of Gaza, and day 110 since the Israeli military violated the ceasefire agreement on March 18th (when Israel resumed its wholesale slaughter of the besieged and imprisoned Palestinian civilian population in Gaza), Israeli forces continued their violent assault on all parts of the Gaza Strip, with the main targets being the tents of displaced Palestinian families.
Israeli aircraft bombed a group of children around a swing set and a tent housing displaced persons in the Al-Rimal neighborhood in central Gaza City in the morning on Tuesday (details below).
Bombs also hit the al-Mawasi ‘safe zone’ – bombed for the sixth day in a row, as well as Khan Younis and Gaza City. At least forty Palestinian civilians were killed on Tuesday.
The Israeli army’s Arabic-language spokesperson, Avichay Adraee, issued the latest forced evacuation order for civilians living in nine areas in Khan Younis, southern Gaza. Adraee said the army was expanding its operation in deep Khan Younis.
The evacuation threats put most of the city under evacuation threats, except some areas of Al-Mawasi. The so-called Israeli safe zones, including al-Mawasi, are constantly attacked despite the army forcing Palestinians to move to those areas.
The Israeli military committed numerous war crimes again on Tuesday, bombing and shelling the starved, besieged and unarmed civilian population of 2.3 million people imprisoned inside the Gaza death camp.
Intense Israeli shelling on several areas in the Gaza Strip began early in the morning Monday and continued through the afternoon and into the evening — as has been the case every day in Gaza since October 7, 2023 (apart from a five-day ceasefire in late November 2023, and a 51-day ceasefire from January 25th through March 18th, 2025).
Today’s massacres followed a series of massacres committed by Israeli forces on Monday, with over 60 civilians killed by Israeli airstrikes and artillery fire.
Also Monday, six Israeli soldiers were killed and ten others wounded after Palestinian fighters targeted them in the city of Beit Hanoun.
Gaza’s Al-Aqsa Hospital issued a statement Tuesday night warning the hospital is suffering from a severe fuel shortage and will run out of fuel within hours. Parts of the hospital are suffering from power failures already:
Al-Aqsa hospital is one of the barely functional hospitals left in the central area, and this chronic shortage will have severe repercussions on the lives of many patients who are receiving treatment inside.
The fuel depletion will also lead to the potential suspension of a number of medical services, including kidney dialysis treatment.
The following attacks by Israeli forces in Gaza on Tuesday were documented by local sources:

Also, two Palestinians were killed and more than 35 others were injured by Israeli occupation forces’ bullets in the Al-Shakoush area, northwest of Rafah.
Since October 7, 2023, the Israeli occupation has waged a genocidal war in the Gaza Strip, leaving more than 194,000 dead and wounded, most of them children and women, and more than 11,000 missing, in addition to hundreds of thousands of displaced persons and a famine that has claimed the lives of many, including children.
