Developments in the war on Gaza: More than 28 thousand dead in the Gaza Strip

The Ministry of Health said on Friday, “The Israeli army committed 10 massacres against families in the Gaza Strip, claiming 112 killed and 157 injuries during the past 24 hours.”

The Ministry confirmed in a statement that there are still a number of victims under rubble and on the roads, and Israeli forces prevent ambulance and civil defense crews from reaching them.

It indicated that the number of killed has risen to 28,775 Palestinians and 68,552 injuries since the seventh of last October.


The Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip has entered its 133rd day, with the continued massacres committed by the occupation forces against our people, and the continued displacement of citizens from one place to another within the besieged Strip, in an attempt to escape from missile bombardment, artillery shells and sniper bullets.


At dawn today, Friday, a number of citizens were killed, and others were injured, in an Israeli missile and artillery bombardment that targeted various areas of the Gaza Strip.


In Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip, 11 citizens were killed and others were injured, in raids launched by Israeli aircraft on two homes belonging to the Judeh and Zarub families in the center and north of the city.


The Israeli forces continue their siege of the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Yunis, south of the Gaza Strip, and the Israeli snipers target anyone who moves in the complex and its surroundings.


According to the Ministry of Health, three patients died this morning in the intensive care room as a result of the cessation of oxygen due to the power outage in the complex.


The Ministry also announced that two women gave birth “in dire and inhumane conditions, without electricity, without water, without food, and without heating, in the Nasser Medical Complex.”


The Israeli aircraft launched raids southeast of Khan Yunis, and the occupation artillery bombed east of Beit Hanoun in the northern Gaza Strip.


A number of citizens were also killed, including a woman and her fetus, and others were wounded, in raids launched by Israeli occupation aircraft on two homes for the Sabbah and Afana families on Al-Sika Street, east of Jabalia, in the northern Gaza Strip.


A number of children were killed in Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahia, north of the Gaza Strip, due to drought and malnutrition, in light of the lack of food and the spread of diseases and epidemics.


The Israeli aircraft bombed the Tal al-Zaatar area in the north of the Gaza Strip, simultaneously with the occupation artillery shelling the al-Mughraqa area in the north of the Central Governorate, and the vicinity of the university college south of the al-Sabra neighborhood in Gaza City.


On Thursday evening, at least three citizens were killed, and others were injured, a number of them seriously, as a result of the Israeli occupation bombing a vehicle and a group of citizens in Gaza City.


The Israeli army also launched air strikes on the Al-Sabra and Al-Zaytoun neighborhoods south of the city, and its artillery fired several shells towards the Sheikh Ajlin area to the west.
