The Ministry of Health in Gaza states death toll in Gaza Strip increases


(MENAFN) Lots of injured civilians at the Indonesian Hospital in northern Gaza are at danger of dying owing to absence of food and water, Palestinian health authorities have announced. The Ministry of Health in Gaza stated recently on Tuesday that 60 individuals were “at risk of death”.

“The humanitarian situation inside the hospital has become extremely dangerous, as the wounded lack basic needs, which increases their suffering under the difficult conditions imposed by [Israeli] forces,” the ministry added in a statement on Telegram platform on Tuesday.

The facility is placed in Beit Lahiya in the north of the Gaza Strip, which has been under Israeli army blockade since the beginning of October.

In its own everyday update on the deaths numbers from Israel’s genocide on Gaza, the ministry announced that not less than 28 civilians had been murdered and 54 others wounded in “four massacres against families”.

“A number of victims are still under the rubble and on the roads, and ambulance and civil defense crews cannot reach them,” the ministry reads.
