The death toll from the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip rose to 9,770 martyrs, including 4,800 children and 2,550 women, in addition to 24,000 Palestinians suffering various injuries. According to Gaza Ministry of Health spokesman Ashraf Al-Qudra.
Al-Qudra said on Sunday that 70% of the martyrs and wounded as a result of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip were women and children.
He added that the Israeli occupation committed 24 massacres during the past 24 hours, claiming the lives of 243 martyrs. The total number of massacres since October 7 to date has risen to 1,031 massacres.
The Ministry of Health in Gaza received 2,660 reports of missing persons, including 1,270 children still under the rubble.
He pointed out that hospitals in the Gaza Strip are completely unable to provide any health services, and they have only hours, calling on all parties to provide a safe passage for the flow of aid, including fuel.
He stressed that there are no safe passages, which is “a lie and the occupation is using it to attack our people,” pointing out that for the third day in a row we were unable to transport the wounded to Egypt’s hospitals due to the heavy bombing.
Al-Qudra stated that the Israeli occupation deliberately targets ambulances, which prevents the wounded from being transported to the Egyptian border.
On Sunday, on the thirtieth day of the war on Gaza, the Israeli occupation aircraft committed a new massacre during its bombing of homes in the Al-Maghazi refugee camp in the center of the besieged Gaza Strip, resulting in an initial toll of dozens of martyrs and a large number of wounded.
The Palestinian News Agency (Wafa) said that 51 people, the majority of whom were women and children, were martyred and dozens were injured in an Israeli bombing of homes in the Maghazi camp in the central Gaza Strip on Saturday evening.
For his part, the spokesman for the Ministry of Health in Gaza, Ashraf Al-Qudra, said that a large number of people died as a result of the “Maghazi massacre,” without giving a specific number, pointing to the accumulation of large numbers of serious injuries on the floor in the emergency department. Al-Qudra confirmed that the majority of the martyrs and injured were children and women.
He had previously said that Israeli forces “kill one child and wound two children every ten minutes” during their ongoing attack on the Gaza Strip.
