Since 7 October last, the attacks of the Israeli army have left 40,173 dead and 92,857 wounded.

The Gaza Ministry of Health reported that in the last 24 hours, 34 people have been killed and 114 others injured as a result of Israeli occupation attacks.

The health department reiterated that the Zionist entity continues to obstruct the work of rescue teams, who are trying to access bodies trapped under rubble and scattered on roads.

Israeli occupation warplanes bombed the Mustafa Hafez school, west of the city, which houses displaced persons, leaving nine dead and several wounded.

Meanwhile, in the town of Deir al-Balah, in the central Gaza Strip, four civilians were killed by heavy IDF air and artillery strikes.

The figures for casualties in the Gaza Strip are incomplete due to continued Israeli aggression, lack of fuel, infrastructure being destroyed and rubble among other things, which undermine the work of the authorities in documenting the number of deaths and injuries.

In Gaza, there are around 10,000 cancer patients without medical treatment and 60,000 pregnant women at risk.

Gaza’s health system is not able to care for all the sick and wounded, as at least 34 hospitals and 68 health centres are out of service because of the Israeli aggression, and about 131 ambulances have been damaged by the bombing.
