The Palestinian Ministry of Health reported today, Saturday, that the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) committed five massacres in the Gaza Strip, leaving 69 martyrs and 212 injured during the past 24 hours.

The Ministry warned that there are still a number of victims under the rubble and on the roads, and that the IOF prevents ambulance and civil defense crews from reaching them.

It announced that the total death toll of the “Israeli” aggression had risen to 40,334 martyrs and 93,356 injuries since Oct. 7, 2023.
