In a tragic turn of events, Major General Jihad Muheisen, the commander of the paramilitary Palestinian National Security Forces in the Gaza Strip, was killed in an Israeli army attack on the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in Gaza City. The report, released by the Quds News Network, also stated that Muheisen’s family was killed in the strike.

Major General Jihad Muheisen, the head of Hamas-led security forces, died in an airstrike, according to a report by Hamas. The bombing on his house in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood, north of Gaza City, also killed his family, they added.
Who is Jihad Muheisen?
Major General Jihad Muheisen was the commander of the Palestinian National Security Forces (NSF) in the Gaza Strip. He and his family were killed in a bombing of his house in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in northern Gaza.
The NSF are the paramilitary security forces of the Palestinian National Authority. Sheikh Radwan is a district of Gaza City located nearly 3 kilometers (1.9 mi) northwest of the city center. It borders al-Shati camp to the southwest, Rimal to the south, and Jabalia to the east.
Gaza Crisis: Children trapped, diplomatic efforts, and disturbing images
According to the health ministry in Gaza, approximately 600 children are currently trapped under the rubble of buildings destroyed by Israeli attacks, following the massacre of civilians by Hamas. The spokesperson, Ashraf al Qudra, stated that these children are among a total of 1,300 people trapped under ruins. Rescue attempts are ongoing but are being severely hampered due to constant air strikes.
In a diplomatic effort to prevent the conflict from escalating further, Rishi Sunak has arrived in Israel and met with the country’s Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and President Isaac Herzog. This visit follows reports of hundreds of fatalities resulting from an explosion at a hospital in the Gaza Strip. There are conflicting reports about who is responsible for this deadly air strike.
The Health Ministry initially reported that at least 500 people had died in the blast, but revised this figure to 471 on Wednesday. Officials from Al-Ahli stated that the death toll was in the hundreds. Prior to the hospital attack, nearly 3,500 people in Gaza had been killed in response to a brutal Hamas incursion that resulted in around 1,500 fatalities, including Brits, eleven days ago.
Disturbing images have also emerged from Israel’s Be’eri Kibbutz, showing the aftermath of an attack on a nursery that was abandoned during a horrifying massacre over a week ago. The images depict blood smeared across the pre-school floor and discarded AK47 magazines scattered amongst children’s toys. It is reported that more than 100 victims died in this attack.
