The Ministry of Health in Gaza has confirmed that the number of Palestinians killed by the Israeli occupation has reached 24,762 while another 62,108 have been injured since October 7.

On the 105th day of the US-backed Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, the Ministry of Health said that the Israeli occupation committed 12 massacres against Palestinian families in the Gaza Strip, killing 142 people in 24 hours and wounding another 278.

Persistent communication blackouts continue to hinder the work of emergency workers, who are already working with limited resources. Around 80% of communications infrastructures have been deliberately destroyed by the Israeli military since October 7, while technical cadres working in the field have also been attacked while carrying out their mission in the Gaza Strip.

A substantial number of Palestinians remain stuck under the rubble created by the Israeli bombs and shelling.

'Israel' murdered 1,000 Palestinians since ICJ session

The occupation continues to mount new incidents to the list of war crimes and genocidal acts it has committed in the Gaza Strip, amid an ongoing trial in the International Court of Justice (ICJ), in which South Africa has filed a lawsuit against "Israel" accusing of violating the genocide convention.

In this context, the Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor (Euro-Med) has said that the Israeli occupation has killed around a thousand Palestinians since the ICJ adjourned the legal proceedings on January 12. 

The watchdog stated that the "defense" presented by the Israeli legal team at the ICJ on January 12 has been contradicted by the continuous crimes committed in the Gaza Strip. These crimes persisted throughout the period in which the Israeli team presented its defense at the ICJ, the Euro-Med said in a press release.
