Another 29 Palestinians were killed in brutal Israeli attacks in the besieged Palestinian territory of Gaza. Due to this, the total death toll in the valley has reached 42 thousand 450 people.
In addition, more than 99,000 Palestinians have been injured in this attack since October last year. Anadolu news agency reported this information in a report on Thursday (October 17).
At least 29 more Palestinians have been killed in Israel’s ongoing offensive in the Gaza Strip, according to reports. Due to this, the total number of dead has increased to 42 thousand 438 since October last year, the Ministry of Health of the blockaded territory said on Thursday.
The ministry said in a statement that at least 99 thousand 246 people were also injured in this relentless attack.
The ministry said 29 people were killed and 93 others were wounded in the last 24 hours as a result of continued aggression by Israeli forces. Many people are still trapped under the rubble and on the streets as rescuers are unable to reach them.
Palestinian health authorities believe more than 10,000 people are still missing under the rubble of destroyed homes across the Gaza Strip. Israel has continued its brutal attacks on the besieged territory, despite a UN Security Council resolution originally calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
It should be noted that since the unprecedented cross-border attack by Hamas on October 7, Israel has been carrying out continuous air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip. Thousands of buildings including hospitals, schools, refugee camps, mosques, churches have been damaged or destroyed in this Israeli attack.
In addition, more than two million residents have been forced to leave their homes due to Israeli aggression.
Basically the Israeli invasion has reduced Gaza to rubble. According to the United Nations, about 85 percent of Gaza’s Palestinians have been displaced by Israel’s brutal offensive. And with acute shortages of food, clean water and medicine, all of Gaza is now food insecure.
In addition, 60 percent of the infrastructure in the besieged territory has been damaged or destroyed. Israel has already been accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice.
