The Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip confirmed today, Monday, the martyrdom of 124 Palestinians and the injury of 210 others as a result of 13 massacres in the sector carried out by the Israeli occupation forces during the past 24 hours.

The ministry - in a press statement - stated that the toll of the ongoing Israeli war on the sector since last October 7 has risen to 30,534 martyrs and 71,920 injured, most of them women and children.

The ministry explained that this number does not include thousands of victims on the roads and under the rubble, and the occupation prevents ambulance and civil defense teams from reaching them. It also does not include missing persons whose fate is unknown.

In the same context, the number of children who have died due to malnutrition, dehydration, and lack of treatment has increased to 16, following the death of a child at Abu Youssef Al-Najjar Hospital in the city of Rafah in the south of the sector, which Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatens to invade, disregarding international warnings of an unprecedented humanitarian disaster if he carries out this action.
