QNA

Gaza: The number of victims from the ongoing Israeli assault on the Gaza Strip has climbed to 44,758 martyrs and 106,134 injured.

Medical sources in Gaza reported that hospitals in the region received 50 martyrs and 84 injured individuals, during the latest 24-hour reporting period, after the occupation forces committed three massacres against civilians in various areas across the Gaza Strip.

The sources added that other victims are trapped under bombed-out buildings, with civil defense personnel being unable to either reach them or recover their bodies, emphasizing that the number of victims is much higher than the temporary statistics that are published daily.

Since Oct.7, 2023, the Israeli occupation forces have been launching unprecedented offensive in the Gaza Strip which target civilians in homes, shelters and displaced camps, amid unprecedented humanitarian crisis.
