Gaza tower block landlord denies Hamas presence
The landlord of the tower block destroyed by an Israel air strike on Saturday has denied there was any military presence in the building, the BBC's Rushdi Abualouf reports from Gaza.
An earlier Israeli statement said the tower had been housing "military assets" belonging to the intelligence offices of Hamas - the militant Islamist group that runs the Gaza Strip.
But the landlord told reporters that the building had only contained the offices of media organisations and other businesses as well as about 60 residential apartments.
The tower was the biggest building in Gaza destroyed by Israel so far, our correspondent adds. Al Jazeera and the Associated Press both had offices in the building, which was evacuated before it was destroyed.

Al Jazeera condemns bombing of Gaza tower
The Qatar-based Al Jazeera television network has also condemned Israel's bombing of the Gaza tower block where it had offices.
In a statement, it said it viewed the move as "as a clear act to stop journalists from conducting their sacred duty to inform the world and report events on the ground".
"Al Jazeera promises to pursue every available route to hold the Israeli government responsible for its actions."
Residents and occupants of the building were informed by the Israeli army by phone that they had less than one hour to vacate the building, it added.
Dr Mostefa Souag, acting director general of Al Jazeera Media Network, said:
"We call on the international community to condemn such barbaric actions and targeting of journalists, and we demand an immediate international action to hold Israel accountable for its deliberate targeting of journalists and the media institutions."

Sekurang-kurangnya 148 terkorban di Palestin, termasuk 41 kanak-kanak
Gaza: Pengeboman Israel ke atas Semenanjung Gaza memasuki hari ketujuh berturut-turut dengan serangan udara pada awal pagi ini mengorbankan sekurang-kurangnya empat penduduk Palestin dan puluhan lagi cedera selain kemusnahan dua bangunan kediaman.
Turut menjadi sasaran adalah rumah Ketua Hamas di Gaza, Yehya al-Sinwar yang mengetuai sayap ketenteraan dan politik kumpulan itu sejak 2017.
Wartawan Al Jazeera, Safwat al-Kahlout melaporkan, pesawat Israel melakukan 150 serangan udara di Semenanjung Gaza hari ini termasuk 60 di bandar.
Pasukan kecemasan percaya ada keluarga yang terperangkap dalam runtuhan kediaman, sementara Kementerian Kesihatan Palestin memaklumkan ramai penduduk tiba di hospital dengan kecederaan.
Di Tel Aviv yang dijajah Israel, orang ramai bergegas mencari tempat perlindungan selepas siren dibunyikan sebagai amaran tembakan roket oleh Hamas.
Susulan itu, tentera Israel melancarkan sistem pertahanan udara 'Iron Dome' untuk memintas roket Hamas.
Pelepasan roket berkenaan berlaku beberapa jam selepas peluru berpandu Hamas membedil kem pelarian di sini, yang mengorbankan 10 penduduk Palestin termasuk lapan kanak-kanak, dan memusnahkan bangunan bertingkat yang turut menempatkan pejabat media antarabangsa termasuk Al Jazeera.
Berucap menerusi siaran televisyen, Perdana Menteri Israel Benjamin Netanyahu berikrar akan terus menyerang Gaza 'selama yang perlu', sementara pemimpin kanan Hamas, Ismail Haniya berkata, 'penentang tidak akan menyerah'.
Sekurang-kurangnya 148 penduduk Palestin termasuk 41 kanak-kanak di Gaza menjadi korban konflik itu sejak seminggu lalu, manakala 950 orang cedera dan sekurang-kurangnya 13 orang lagi maut di Tebing Barat.
Di jajahan Israel, 10 orang terbunuh dengan dua kematian dilapor pada Sabtu.

Rescuers dig for survivors as Gaza suffers ‘most intense’ bombing
16 May 2021
At least 33 people died in Gaza after 150 Israeli air strikes hit the besieged enclave in one hour overnight.
An hour-long rain of 150 rockets pounded the territory overnight on Sunday in what a Palestinian security source said was the “most intense” shelling since the second intifada, or uprising, that began in 2000.
Nearly half of the rockets targeted the Gaza City district of al-Wehda where residential houses, infrastructure and roads were destroyed or partially damaged.
The ministry of health confirmed 33 people were killed overnight – including Dr Ayman Abu al-Ouf, head of internal medicine at Shifa hospital – following Israeli bombardment on their homes. Five children were found alive under the debris.
“We can still hear people shouting from under the rubble,” said Medhat Hamdan, a civil defence worker who came from Khan Younis to Gaza City and worked nonstop for 11 hours to save lives.
“For me, working in this field has numbed me to any fear. I’m no longer shocked by what I see, but one can’t help get emotional when we reach the bodies of children and remove them,” said Hamdan, adding he pulled three dead children from under the rubble.
“Our entire neighbourhood – from Tel Shubeir to Palmera intersection – was bombed,” said Ramzi Eshkuntana, who was at home when he said 40 successive air raids fell on the area in just a few minutes.
“We ran out of the house and saw the destruction of most the buildings around us, including my brother’s house. His wife and four children were killed as they were sleeping,” said Eshkuntana.
“My brother’s wife was pulled out with her arms around her children,” he added. “These weren’t F-16 missiles; these were bombs from F-35 warplanes.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'These are children’
A rescue worker gave his account as he was trying to rescue people from under the debris.
“We heard the screams of a young girl. We also heard the ringing of a mobile phone. We followed the sound and for hours, using a bulldozer and other light devices, we got to the girl, who is alive,” he said.
“The woman, along with her children – two boys and two girls – are dead. Were these children firing rockets? Isn’t it enough they were denied the joy of Eid? These are children! The oldest one was in the fourth grade.”
Mirjam Mueller, head of the ICRC in Gaza said the last few days were marked by a “dramatic” increase in violence.
“Our teams have rarely been able to move. A de-escalation is really needed so that we can assess the humanitarian situation on the ground and deliver much-needed aid,” said Mueller.
“I have been here only a couple of days … and it has been heartbreaking to see how the situation has been unfolding.”
Another resident, Khalil al-Kolak, said both of his family’s buildings were destroyed.
“We woke up in the middle of the night to the sound of the bombardment,” he said.
“Only two from our family are alive, ” he continued. “The rest -14 members including women, children and men – are all gone. There are still six under the rubble.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
‘Criminal army’
Raji al-Sourani, head of Palestine centre for human rights, told Al Jazeera that Israel is intentionally targeting civilians.
“What happened here in al-Wehda is clear evidence that Israel is carrying out crimes against humanity and purposely targeting civilians,” he said.
“The most developed and powerful military in the region is attacking residential buildings, banks, journalists and families. It is clear that this criminal army can’t beat the resistance and instead 80 percent of its targets are civilians.”
Al-Sourani said the crimes are being documented and will be presented to international courts.
Israeli Brigadier-General Hidai Zilberman, an army spokesman, told Israel’s army radio on Sunday the military targeted the home of Yehiyeh Sinwar, the most senior Hamas leader inside the territory.
Since violence flared on Monday more than 170 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip have been killed, including 41 children. More than 1,000 others have been wounded. In the occupied West Bank, Israeli forces have killed at least 13 Palestinians.
Palestinian armed groups have fired at least 2,300 rockets at Israel, killing 10 people, including two children, and wounding more than 560 Israelis.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
‘Striking our children’
The intense bombing on Sunday came hours after Israeli missiles hit the Shati refugee camp killing 10 relatives – two mothers and their four children each. Israel’s army claimed the building was used by senior Hamas officials, which was refuted by residents in the camp.
“They are striking our children, children, without prior warning,” said a devastated Mohammed al-Hadidi who lost most of his family in the strike and whose five-month-old baby was also wounded in the explosion.
On the same day, Israeli forces brought down a high-rise building housing the offices of media organisations, including Al Jazeera’s bureau.
As violence grows, the humanitarian situation steadily worsens with some 17,000 Palestinians fleeing their homes near the Israeli fence east of the Gaza Strip for fear of a ground offensive, the United Nations said.
“They are sheltering in schools, mosques, and other places during a global COVID-19 pandemic with limited access to water, food, hygiene and health services,” UN humanitarian official Lynn Hastings said.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres was “dismayed” by civilian casualties in Gaza and “deeply disturbed” by Israel’s strike on the tower housing news bureaus.
Guterres “reminds all sides that any indiscriminate targeting of civilian and media structures violates international law and must be avoided at all costs”, his spokesman said.
The UN Security Council meets on Sunday to discuss the bloodiest conflict between Israel and the Palestinians since 2014.
Palestinians on Saturday marked the Nakba – the “catastrophe” that saw hundreds of thousands of Palestinians displaced during Israel’s creation in 1947-1948.
tumpang tanya... bangunan yang kena bedil hancur tu dapat pampasan jugak ke macam tanah palestin yang di curi tu? atau kena bin sendiri balik jugak guna titik peluh sendiri?
scarynya kalau ada kat situ...
dalam beberapa minit je bangunan akan di bedil...
tak sempat pun nak tacap lipstick mamasabariah x mamazat kat tandas...

Victims of aggression: Gaza hospital overwhelmed with wounded
16 May 2021
Gaza City – Medical workers are overwhelmed by the number of wounded at Gaza’s biggest hospital after a night of ferocious air raids killed and injured dozens of Palestinians.
Shaima Ahmed Qwaider, 23, a nurse at al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, described on Sunday horrific scenes of severely injured people arriving, some of them bombing victims missing limbs.
“I have never seen anything like this in my life,” she told Al Jazeera. “There were body parts collected on hospital beds and unbearable scenes.”
As rescuers struggled to pull victims from the debris of destroyed buildings, many of those rescued could not reach the hospital as the main road leading to al-Shifa – the largest medical centre in the Gaza Strip – had been hit as well.
Dr Midhat Abbas from the Gaza health ministry said 1,200 Palestinians had been wounded during the seven days of attacks, about half of whom were women and children.
He accused the Israeli military of deliberately targeting health facilities with air strikes and bombing the roads surrounding al-Shifa.
“They are targeting mainly civilians, these are the victims of this aggression,” said Dr Abbas. “[Israeli Prime Minister] Benjamin Netanyahu wants to save himself from jail and so he decided to kill Palestinian children.”
Israeli air raids killed 33 Palestinians, including 13 children, in Gaza on Sunday, Gaza health officials said. The attacks brought the death toll in Gaza to 181, including 52 children. Israel has reported 10 dead, including two children.
There was no immediate comment from the Israeli military on the raids.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
‘Capacity very limited’
Dr Abbas said staff were setting up beds in reception areas as the hospital filled up, adding that there were shortages of medicine and equipment as a result of the 15-year siege of Gaza by Israel and the coronavirus pandemic.
“We hope patients will be going to Egypt [for medical care] because our capacity is very limited,” Dr Abbas told Al Jazeera.
Nurse Amal Badawi described the overcrowding as more wounded were brought in.
“The hospital is filled with people and relatives. It was difficult to work and conduct the needed treatment in light of this overcrowding. The number of injured or killed is huge and they just keep arriving,” Badawi told Al Jazeera.
Among those killed in Sunday’s air raids was Dr Ayman Abu Auf, a physician at al-Shifa, the health ministry said.
Fahad al-Haddad, an emergency medicine specialist at al-Shifa, said most of the dead brought to the hospital showed no external signs of injuries, meaning they were killed by the rubble that collapsed on them while they were still alive.
Egypt has opened the Rafah border crossing a day earlier than planned to allow the passage of students, people needing medical treatment and other humanitarian cases, two sources at the border told Reuters on Sunday.
The border had been closed for the Eid al-Fitr holiday and was due to reopen on Monday.
Egypt has so far sent 16 ambulances into Gaza to pick up casualties of Israeli bombardments for treatment in Egyptian hospitals, a medical source said.
The source said a bus with 95 people on board had arrived from Gaza on Sunday morning.
