The death toll in the Gaza Strip has reached 50,912, the majority of whom were women and children, since the beginning of the Israeli aggression in October 2023. At least 115,981 others have also been injured.
Medical sources confirmed that of the total casualties, 1,542 civilians have been killed and 3,940 have been injured since March 18, 2025, when the Israeli occupation resumed its aggression on the Gaza Strip following the ceasefire agreement.
Sources stated that the bodies of 26 slain civilians, including six that were recovered, along with 106 injured individuals, were brought to hospitals in Gaza during the past 24 hours.
This toll remains incomplete, as many victims remain trapped under rubble, inaccessible to ambulance and rescue crews.
The Israeli occupation issued new forcible ‘evacuation orders‘ on Friday for civilians in several areas of Gaza City.
Local sources reported that the Israeli occupation ordered residents in the neighborhoods of Zeitoun, Shuja’iyya and Al-Tuffah, located in the eastern part of Gaza City, to immediately leave their homes and head westward towards the outskirts of the city.
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) said that an estimated 400,000 people have been displaced in the Gaza Strip following the breakdown of the ceasefire.
“They are now also enduring by far the longest blockage of aid and commercial supplies since the start of the war,” said UNRWA in a post on X.
UNRWA called for the immediate renewal of the ceasefire and the unimpeded flow of humanitarian aid and commercial supplies.
Since March 2, the Israeli occupation has obstructed the entry of vital supplies, including food and water, into the Gaza Strip following the closure of crossings. This has led to a catastrophic humanitarian crisis, intensifying hunger and thirst among the population.
