More than 21 people were killed in a military Israeli airstrike targeting a mosque-turned-shelter for displaced Palestinians in Deir Al-Balah, central Gaza Strip, early Sunday morning.
The news is trending on the social media with images and videoclips of the state of the devastation and which is seen as another massacre, another bloodbath.
Local sources reported that it took paramedics and civil defense crews close to three hours to remove the bodies because of the sheer level of damage and the scale of devastation that was caused, with many saying there are still bodies underground.
The targeted mosque is located across the street from Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital and was hit by the Israeli military at about 2am local time when many were fast asleep.
Israeli warplanes dropped bombs and severely damaged the facility and the properties in the surrounding area, including many department stores on the main road.
Macron Calls on States to Stop Weapons Supply to Israel

French President Emmanuel Macron urged countries to stop providing weapons to Israel for its ongoing genocide war in the Gaza Strip and expressed concern that Lebanon should not be allowed to “become a new Gaza.”
“The priority is that we return to a political solution, that we stop delivering weapons to carry out fighting in Gaza,” Macron said in an interview with France Inter, a public radio station aired Saturday.
Macron added, “France is not delivering any” weapons to Israel.
He stated: “I think we are not being heard.”
“I think it is a mistake, including for the security of Israel,” he said, adding that the war was leading to “hatred”.
Macron’s call comes amid mounting public scrutiny of the high death toll in Gaza and Israel’s widening aggression in Lebanon.
Macron said Lebanon should not be allowed to “become a new Gaza,” referring to Israel’s ground and air offensive in the country. “The Lebanese people cannot, in turn, be sacrificed,” he added.
According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, while France did not export any major arms to Israel in recent years, it has supplied components for arms.
At a summit for French-speaking leaders in Paris, Saturday, according to the Washington Post, Macron said, “If we call for a cease-fire, consistency is to not provide weapons of war. And I think that those who provide them cannot every day call for a cease-fire alongside us and continue to supply them.”
Last month, Britain suspended some arms exports to Israel over concerns about potential violations of international humanitarian law, joining several other nations that have taken similar actions in the wake of the war in Gaza.
Speaking in Paris, Saturday, Macron said that while both the US and France had called for a ceasefire in Lebanon, he added: “I regret that Prime Minister Netanyahu has made another choice, has taken this responsibility, in particular, for ground operations on Lebanese soil.”
Netanyahu, in a video statement Saturday after Macron’s remarks, criticized the French president and other leaders who “call for an arms embargo on Israel.”
“Israel will win with or without their support, but their shame will continue long after the war is won,” he said.
In response to Netanyahu, Macron’s office said France remains a “steadfast friend of Israel,” describing Netanyahu’s reaction as “excessive and detached from the friendship between France and Israel,” according to Le Monde as reported in the Quds News Network.
Cultural Genocide: Israel Destroys, Loots National Museum of Gaza

In addition to religious structures, cultural institutions have also faced devastation. The National Museum of Gaza, which housed over 3,000 rare artifacts, has been looted and destroyed. These artifacts represented centuries of Palestinian history and culture, and their loss is irreplaceable.
The war has resulted in the complete destruction of over 800 mosques, with many historical and culturally significant buildings lost forever. Among them is the Great Omari Mosque, which dated back 1,400 years and was a symbol of the region’s Islamic heritage. Other notable casualties include the partially destroyed Al-Sayyid Hashim Mosque and the Al-Zafaar Damri Mosque, which held historical significance dating back to the Mamluk period.
Since the onset of hostilities on October 7, 2023, Israel has systematically targeted 206 out of 325 significant archaeological, religious, and historical sites throughout the Gaza Strip.
Historical monuments have not been spared in this campaign of destruction. The Al-Basha Palace, a site of significant historical value, has been targeted multiple times, leading to the erasure of centuries of history. Similarly, the Al-Saqa House, which stood for 400 years, is now destroyed. The Ancient Port of Gaza, a vital connection to the region’s maritime history, has also suffered extensive bombardment.
