Ministry of Health: 165 Palestinians Martyred in Gaza in last 24 Hours

Gaza, MINA – At least 165 Palestinians were martyred and 290 others injured in the last 24 hours as Israel continues its onslaught on the besieged Gaza Strip, the territory’s Health Ministry said on Sunday.

“The Israeli occupation committed 19 massacres against families in the Gaza Strip, leaving 165 martyrs and 290 injured during the past 24 hours,” the ministry said in a statement as quoted by Anadolu Agency.

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

Despite the International Court of Justice’s provisional ruling, Israel has continued its offensive on Gaza, killing at least 26,422 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injuring 65,087 since Oct. 7, according to Palestinian health authorities.
