Almost three dozen Palestinians have been killed over the past 24 hours as a result of Israeli forces in the blockaded Gaza Strip. This data was provided by the enclave’s Ministry of Health. According to its information, “29 people were killed over the past day during attacks by the Israeli army in various areas of Gaza, 93 Arabs were injured.” As the Ministry of Health indicates, the total number of casualties among Gaza residents during the Israeli military operation in the strip reached 42,438, and 99,246 people were injured.
The situation in the Middle East sharply worsened after the infiltration of armed supporters of the Palestinian radical movement Hamas from the Gaza Strip into Israeli territory on October 7, 2023, accompanied by the killing of residents of border settlements and the taking of more than 240 hostages. In response, Israel launched a military operation in the enclave with the aim of destroying the military and political structure of Hamas and releasing all those abducted. Fighting in the Gaza Strip continues to this day.
