The Palestinian Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip announced today, Sunday, the martyrdom of five people and the injury of eight others due to Israeli aggressions that occurred during the past twenty-four hours. The ministry confirmed in its daily statistical report that hospitals received the new victims amid the continued intermittent military operations carried out by the occupation forces in various areas of the Strip.
Medical sources indicated that this toll raises the total number of martyrs since the outbreak of the war in October 2023 to 72,239 martyrs, while the number of injured reached 171,861. These figures reflect the scale of the ongoing humanitarian tragedy despite the ceasefire agreement coming into effect in October of last year, which has seen repeated violations.
In field details, Civil Defense spokesman Mahmoud Bassal explained that rescue teams managed to recover three martyrs from one family following an airstrike that targeted the Al-Sawarah area in the Nuseirat camp. Local sources added that the aerial bombardment hit a populated house, completely destroying it and causing severe damage to neighboring buildings in the central region of the Strip.
For its part, Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah city received the bodies of the three martyrs, a man, his wife, and their young child, in addition to a number of injured people, one of whom was described as being in critical condition. Medical teams continue to provide necessary care to the injured amid a severe shortage of essential medical supplies due to the long siege and the destruction of the health system.
The Ministry of Health noted that the pace of Israeli violations of the ceasefire agreement signed in October 2025 has significantly escalated, with the toll of victims from these violations reaching 663 martyrs and 1762 injured so far. These violations vary between limited airstrikes, shootings, and artillery shelling targeting border areas and residential gatherings on an almost daily basis.
Regarding material losses, international reports indicate that the war, which lasted for nearly two years, led to the destruction of approximately 90% of the civilian infrastructure in the Gaza Strip. The destruction included water and electricity networks, roads, and educational and health facilities, making large areas of the Strip uninhabitable at present without urgent international intervention.
In a related context, the United Nations estimated the total cost required to rebuild what was destroyed by the Israeli military machine at approximately 70 billion dollars. The residents of the Strip face enormous challenges amid the slow reconstruction efforts and continued security threats, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis for thousands of families who still live in tents or temporary shelters.
