Many martyrs' bodies and injured Palestinians remain under bombed-out structures and left on the streets, with medical and civil defense personnel being unable to reach them.

Additionally, 7 Palestinians were martyred, and others injured, today, following an Israeli raid on Gaza city seashore whose bodies were transferred to Al-Maamadani Hospital in the city.

Palestinian civil defense reported that its personnel recovered the martyrs bodies and whisked off several wounded people to hospitals.

For the 325th day, Israeli occupation army keeps perpetrating the crime of genocide in the Strip through launching air raids and firing artillery shells.
