Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine: ▪We mourn the martyrs Ashraf Dahlan, Shadi Abu Atiya and Sami Baroud, employees of the Islamic University security staff, who were killed while on duty, and extend our deepest condolences to their families, the university administration, and their female and male colleagues. ▪The Israeli occupation’s targeting of the university with two airstrikes, coinciding with the start of regular in-person classes, represents an attack on efforts toward social recovery in the Gaza Strip, the restoration of its educational and national institutions, and the resumption of the educational process. ▪We call on academic and educational institutions around the world to stand in solidarity with the universities of the Gaza Strip, which are facing a systematic Israeli targeting that affects educational institutions and the conditions for their continuity, as part of the comprehensive war of extermination on the Palestinian presence in the Strip. ▪We call on free people of the world to escalate solidarity action and pressure governments to take serious positions and measures that put an end to the occupation’s crimes, the war of extermination, and the plans of ethnic cleansing against the Palestinian people.

Director of Policies and Planning at the Ministry of Agriculture in Gaza, Bahaa Al-Agha:

▪ The war on the Gaza Strip has caused destruction across various aspects of life and economic sectors, especially the agricultural sector, which has been almost completely destroyed. ▪ About 87.6% of agricultural land in the Gaza Strip has been completely damaged, with extensive damage to soil, water wells, irrigation networks, and transmission lines. ▪ Different agricultural sectors, including livestock production and fish production, have suffered damage ranging between 85% and 90%. ▪ A report by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) stated that only about 3% of open agricultural land can be safely accessed and is undamaged, with an area of approximately 4,480 dunams. ▪ About 2,240 dunams of agricultural greenhouses can be safely accessed, representing nearly 16% of the total greenhouses. ▪ In general, the area of open agricultural land and greenhouses that can be safely accessed and cultivated does not exceed 4% of the total agricultural land in the Strip. ▪ More than 70% of agricultural land has become located within the areas controlled by the occupation, in what is known as the "yellow line". ▪ The occupation imposes a strict siege on agricultural production inputs and does not allow the entry of fertilizers, seeds, seedlings, and pesticides, which hinders the resumption of agricultural production in the Gaza Strip. ▪ The shortage of production inputs has led to rising prices of agricultural products, which have become highly dependent on imported materials and products, making them out of reach for a large segment of citizens. ▪ The autumn agricultural season is currently one of the most important seasons in the Gaza Strip because it depends on the rainy season, but the cultivated areas in it have not yet become clear. ▪ The previous season saw a cultivated area of only about 3,100 dunams despite the great need for agricultural production. ▪ Farmers are also facing the spread of agricultural pests, including the Tuta absoluta insect, which has damaged tomato crops amid the unavailability of the pesticides needed to combat it inside the Strip. ▪ The spread of this insect has caused significant losses to farmers and their crops. ▪ The continuation of the occupation's policies threatens to completely stop the agricultural production process amid wide-scale destruction that has affected various economic and productive sectors in the Gaza Strip.

Gaza Ministry of Health:

▪ The total received by hospitals in the Gaza Strip during the past 24 hours reached: 2 new martyrs and 25 injuries. ▪ A number of victims remain under the rubble and in the streets, while ambulance and civil defense crews are still unable to reach them at this moment. ▪ Since the ceasefire (11 October): - Total number of martyrs: 1,372 - Total number of injuries: 4,659 - Total number of recoveries: 831 Cumulative statistics since the beginning of the aggression on 7 October 2023: - Martyrs: 73,786 - Injuries: 174,771

Gaza Ministry of Health:

▪ Suspension of staff transport services threatens an imminent paralysis of the health system. ▪ The sudden halt poses a direct threat to health services inside hospitals, as doctors, nurses, and technicians are unable to reach their workplaces. ▪ Paralysis of transport movement affects the quality of patient care and doubles the pressure on the staff present, warning of the suspension of vital departments from providing their life-saving services. ▪ Scarcity of public transportation and the high cost of individual transport make it impossible to sustain employees’ access through personal efforts. ▪ We call on international institutions, concerned parties, and humanitarian organizations to intervene immediately to provide the oils, spare parts, and fuel necessary to restart the medical transport fleet. ▪ Disregard for the operational requirements of the health system directly threatens the continued health care provided to citizens.
