As of the latest reports, a staggering 2,329 have lost their lives, while 9,042 others are grappling with injuries. The West Bank has not been spared, witnessing 54 fatalities and over 1,100 individuals wounded.

Tragedy struck on Sunday in the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip when israeli shelling targeted two houses, resulting in the death of 15 Palestinians. The violence intensified near Al-Aqsa Martyr’s Hospital in the central Gaza Strip, leading to additional casualties as Israeli shelling hit the hospital's vicinity.

The situation in Gaza is reaching a critical juncture, as the numbers paint a harrowing picture of the impact of Israeli airstrikes and shelling on the already besieged and isolated territory. A dire statistic reveals that 400,000 people have been displaced, with many more fleeing for safety. The death toll and injury count have now reached the thousands, primarily among those who perished inside the over 1,300 buildings that have been destroyed, according to the United Nations.

As international concerns mount, the world watches with deep apprehension as Gaza faces a profound humanitarian crisis, grappling with unprecedented levels of displacement, destruction, and loss of life. The international community is urged to address the escalating situation urgently to prevent further human suffering in the region. (ILKHA)
