Israeli forces kill 190 Palestinians in 24 hours
GAZA CITY, Palestine (AA) – Israeli forces killed at least 190 people and injured 340 others in the Gaza Strip in 24 hours, the Health Ministry in the territory said Monday.
This pushed up the total Palestinian death toll from Israel’s deadly assault on the besieged enclave since Oct. 7 to 25,295.
A ministry statement said 63,000 others have been injured in the offensive during the same period.
“Many people are still trapped under rubble as rescuers are unable to reach them,” it added.
Israel has pounded the Gaza Strip since an attack by Hamas on Oct. 7, which Tel Aviv says killed nearly 1,140 people.
According to the UN, around 85% of Gazans have been displaced by the Israeli onslaught, all of them food insecure. Hundreds of thousands of people are living without shelter.
