Israel’s killings of Palestinians surpass sixty-five thousand four hundred civilians
(MENAFN) The Palestinian Health Ministry reported on Wednesday that at least 65,419 Palestinians have lost their lives in Israel’s ongoing genocide on the Gaza Strip since October 2023.
In its statement, the ministry said that 37 bodies, including four recovered from beneath rubble, were brought to hospitals over the past 24 hours, while 175 additional people were injured. This raises the total number of injuries from the Israeli offensive to 167,160.
“Many victims are still trapped under the rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them,” the statement added.
The ministry further highlighted that five Palestinians were killed, and 20 others wounded by Israeli army fire while attempting to access humanitarian aid in the last 24 hours. This brings the total number of Palestinians killed while seeking aid to 2,531, with over 18,531 others injured since May 27.
Israeli forces resumed attacks on the Gaza Strip on March 18, resulting in 12,823 deaths and 54,944 injuries, breaking a ceasefire and prisoner exchange deal that had been in effect since January.
