The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced in its daily report today that the number of Palestinians killed in Gaza due to the Israeli genocidal war ongoing since October 7 has now reached 34,654 and those injured 77,908.

Additionally, it confirmed that the Israeli occupation forces committed three massacres against families in the Gaza Strip, killing 32 and injuring 41 in 24 hours only.

The Ministry stressed that thousands of victims are still under the rubble on the streets, as the occupation forces continue to deliberately prevent ambulances and civil defense crews from reaching them. 

Meanwhile, Israeli occupation forces continue their aggression on various areas of the Gaza Strip for 211 days, resulting in more civilian casualties.

Two children were killed as a result of an Israeli drone strike on the Sabra neighborhood in the southern city of Gaza.

Our correspondent added that three Palestinians were injured in an airstrike targeting the Farahin neighborhood in the eastern Khan Younis governorate, also in the southern Gaza Strip.

In northern Gaza, our correspondent reported that three bodies of martyrs were recovered from under the rubble of the al-Hourani family's house, which was bombed by occupation aircraft north of the Strip.

Earlier today, IOF bombed the vicinity of Wadi Gaza, north of the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, with artillery shelling, and the southern area of the al-Zaytoun neighborhood southeast of Gaza City.

Over 10,000 people under rubble in Gaza, years to retrieve bodies: UN

The Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza said, on Friday, that over 10,000 people remain buried under the rubble in the Strip, seven months into the ongoing genocidal war launched by the Israeli occupation last October.

In the same context, the UN Aid Coordination Office, OCHA, stated that "with the current primitive tools available, it might require up to three years to recover the bodies," warning that rising temperatures are expected to accelerate the decomposition of bodies, heightening the risk of disease transmission and increasing concerns about public health.

Entire residential neighborhoods and areas have been destroyed by "Israel" since October, the UN aid office said, noting that Gaza was bombed "from the air, land, and sea."

The Palestinian Civil Defense said that many martyrs are trapped under rubble and on roads inaccessible to ambulances and civil defense crews due to lack of means and equipment, in addition to the occupation preventing rescue teams from reaching victims' positions.

The Civil Defense urged in a statement earlier this week that UN agencies and all relevant stakeholders urgently intervene to allow the entry of needed equipment, including bulldozers and excavators, to avert a public health catastrophe, facilitate dignified burials, and save the lives of injured people.
