Gaza: The death toll from the Israeli aggression, which has been ongoing on the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, has risen to 45,399 martyrs, in addition to 107,940 wounded.

The Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza said the hospitals in the Strip received 38 martyrs and 137 wounded, as a result of three massacres committed by the Israeli occupation forces over the past 24 hours against families in the Strip.

The ministry noted that thousands of victims remain under the rubble of destroyed buildings as ambulance and civil defense crews cannot reach them.

For the 446th consecutive day, the Israeli occupation army continues its systematic destruction of Gaza and the extermination of its people, causing a catastrophic and unprecedented humanitarian situation, forcing more than 95 percent of the Strip's population to flee their homes.
