The Israeli occupation has committed 1968 massacres in Gaza since launching the war on the Strip three months ago, the Gaza Government Media Office said on Thursday.

Meanwhile, according to the latest figures, 7,000 people were recorded missing, 70% of them being children and women, the office said.

This comes as the Ministry of Health reported this week that the number of people killed in the ongoing Israeli genocide in Gaza has risen to 23,469, mostly women and children.

Our correspondent mentioned that "the aggression is concentrated in the central area, where the Israeli artillery and aircraft continue to target the camps of Al-Bureij, Al-Maghazi, Al-Nusairat, Deir Al-Balah, and the central Gaza Strip," as well as in the southern Gaza Strip, specifically in Khan Younis.

The United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) estimated earlier that the aggression on Gaza has internally displaced 1.9 million people, nearly 85% of the population. Moreover, over 75% of residential homes in the Strip have been destroyed by the Israeli invading forces.
