Palestinian death toll in Gaza rises to 27,019
ANKARA (AA) – The number of Palestinians killed by Israel in its war on Gaza has jumped to 27,019, the Health Ministry in Gaza said on Thursday.
The Gaza-based Health Ministry made the statement as the Israeli deadly onslaught against Gaza entered its 118th day.
It also said 66,139 other people have been injured in the ongoing onslaught.
The statement noted that in the past 24 hours, the Israeli army committed 15 massacres across the Gaza Strip which left 118 people dead and 190 others injured.
“Many people are still trapped under rubble and on the roads and rescuers can’t reach them,” it added.
Israel has pounded the Gaza Strip since an attack by Hamas in October, in which nearly 1,140 Israelis are believed to have died.
About 85% of Gazans have been displaced by the Israeli onslaught, while all of them are food insecure, according to the UN. Hundreds of thousands of people are living without shelter.
