More than 136,600 Palestinians injured in Israeli assault since October 2023, Health Ministry says
GAZA — At least 57,523 Palestinians have been killed in Israel’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip since October 2023, the Health Ministry said Monday.
A ministry statement said that 105 bodies were brought to hospitals in the last 24 hours, with 356 people injured, taking the number of injuries to 136,617 in the Israeli onslaught.
“Many victims are still trapped under the rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them,” it added.
Israel resumed attacks on the Gaza Strip on March 18 and has since killed 6,964 victims and injured 24,576, shattering a ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement that took hold in January.
Last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave. — AA
