The death toll in Gaza has surged to 40,738, with over 94,154 individuals reported injured, following a series of Israeli airstrikes over the past 24 hours, according to local health authorities.
Three massacres committed by Israeli forces against families in the Gaza Strip resulted in the deaths of at least 47 Palestinians and injuries to 94 others. The majority of the casualties are women and children.
Emergency services continue to struggle with the aftermath of the attacks, as many casualties and dead bodies remain inaccessible, trapped under rubble or scattered on roads. Israeli forces have reportedly obstructed the movement of ambulances and civil defense teams, further complicating rescue and recovery efforts.
Since the onset of the Israeli aggression on October 7, 2023, the humanitarian crisis in Gaza has deepened, with significant challenges in reaching and assisting the affected populations. (ILKHA)
