QNA

Gaza: The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) murdered at least 73,407 Palestinian civilians and injured at least 174,335 others since the beginning of the genocide that the Israeli occupation has been committing against the Gaza Strip in October 2023.

Medical sources in the Gaza Strip said on Wednesday that hospitals across the Strip received seven Palestinian martyrs and 23 injured others over the past 24 hours.

The sources indicated that many of the victims remain under the rubble and scattered on the streets, as ambulance and civil defense crews are still unable to reach them. 

Since the "ceasefire" agreement went into effect in October 2025, the IOF murdered at least 1,273 Palestinians, and injured at least 4,223 others, while 813 bodies were pulled out from under the rubble.
