The Ministry of Health in Gaza released alarming statistics, revealing that over 47,000 Palestinians have been martyred or gone missing since the start of the war on October 7, 2023. The vast majority of children in the Gaza Strip lack access to safe drinking water, with health facilities like Al-Shifa Medical Complex and the Indonesian Hospital suffering deliberate attacks by the occupation.
In the latest wave of violence, the Ministry documented 4 massacres against families in Gaza, resulting in 35 martyrs and 130 wounded individuals. The toll of the Israeli aggression continues to rise, with 37,431 registered martyrs and 85,653 wounded thus far.
As victims remain trapped under rubble and on inaccessible roads, emergency crews struggle to reach those in need. The relentless attacks by the Israeli occupation have left devastation and despair in their wake, with the people of Gaza facing unimaginable loss and suffering.
