Day 306 of Gaza Genocide: 39,677 Palestinians Martyred, 91,645 Injured
The Israeli occupation forces continue with their relentless onslaught against civilians in Gaza as they continue to massacre dozens of people.
On day 306 of the genocide in Gaza, the toll of casualties has risen to 39,677 Palestinians killed and 91,645 injured by the Israeli occupation amid the IOF’s brutal onslaught, according to the daily report published by the Health Ministry in Gaza on Wednesday.
“Israel” committed two massacres over the past 24 hours, killing 24 Palestinians and injuring 110 others.
While some were transported to partially functioning hospitals, many victims remain trapped beneath the rubble with rescue crews being unable to reach them.
Gaza Civil Defense’s capacity to handle Israeli bombardment is exhausted
In a related context, Gaza’s Civil Defense announced earlier on August 4 that it is now unable to deal with the Israeli bombardment due to deteriorating equipment, pointing out that its personnel are working with the minimum available resources.
It also stressed that the Israeli occupation disregards any conventions or norms in its war on Gaza, adding that the continued targeting of schools housing thousands of displaced people is further evidence of this.
The Civil Defense noted that most of the injuries arriving at hospitals are children and women, putting the percentage of children casualties at 80%.
The Media Office noted that approximately 1,040 Palestinians have been killed inside schools since the onset of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip.
On its part, the Gaza Government Media Office reported at the time that 172 shelters for displaced people have been targeted by the Israeli occupation forces since the beginning of the aggression on Gaza on October 7, 2023.
