GAZA: The Palestinian death toll from the ongoing Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip has risen to 34,622, the Gaza health authorities said in a press statement on Friday.
During the past 24 hours, the Israeli army killed 26 Palestinians and wounded 51 others, bringing the total death toll to 34,622 and injuries to 77,867 since the current Palestinian-Israeli conflict broke out last October.
According to the statement, some victims remain under the rubble amid heavy bombardment and a lack of rescue crews.
Israel has launched a large-scale offensive against Hamas in Gaza to retaliate against a Hamas rampage through the southern Israeli border on Oct. 7, 2023, during which about 1,200 people were killed and more than 200 were taken hostage.
