Death Toll of Israeli Aggression on Gaza Jumps to 42,344

Gaza, MINA – Israeli aggression killed at least 55 more Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, bringing the overall death toll since last year to 42,344, the Health Ministry in the enclave said on Tuesday.

A ministry statement added that some 99,013 others were injured in the ongoing assault.

“Israeli forces killed 55 people and injured 329 others in four massacres of families in the last 24 hours,” the ministry said, as reported by Anadolu Agency.

“Many people are still trapped under the rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them,” it added.

Flouting a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire, Israel has continued its brutal offensive on the Gaza Strip.

The Israeli onslaught has displaced almost the entire population of the territory amid an ongoing blockade that has led to severe shortages of food, clean water, and medicine. (T/RE1/P2)
