Day 261: 37,598 Killed, 86,032 Injured in Gaza
In the past 24 hours, Israeli occupation forces have committed three massacres, killing 47 Palestinians and injuring 121 others.
The number of Palestinians killed since the start of the Israeli aggression on Gaza on October 7 has risen to 37,598 and those injured to 86,032, the Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip confirmed on Sunday.
In its daily report, the Health Ministry stated that the Israeli occupation forces committed three massacres in 24 hours, killing a total of 47 people and injuring 121 others.
It is noteworthy that thousands of victims still remain under the rubble and on the roads, as ambulance and civil defense crews are unable to reach them on account of them being repeatedly targeted by the IOF, or due to the destruction of vehicles and tools used to clear the rubble.
