Gaza: The death toll from the Israeli occupation's ten-month-long aggression against the Gaza Strip has risen to 38,713 martyrs and 89,166 wounded, most of whom are women and children.
Medical sources in Gaza stated that during the past 24 hours, the Israeli Occupation forces (IOF) committed two massacres against families in the Strip, resulting in the death of 49 civilians and the injury of 69 others, according to the Palestinian News and Information Agency (WAFA).

Thousands of victims are still under the rubble and on the roads, with ambulance and civil defense crews unable to reach them.
The occupation continues its genocidal act against the Gaza Strip population by launching air strikes and artillery shelling in an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe made worse by the stopping of supplies of food, water, medicine and fuel in disregard of the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) resolutions to immediately stop the war as well as the International Court of Justice's (ICJ) orders.
