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 34,683 and those injured 78,018.

Additionally, it confirmed that the Israeli occupation forces committed three massacres in the past 24 hours, killing 29 and injuring 110.

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 212 days, resulting in more civilian casualties.

Israeli airstrikes targeted the northern and central regions of the Gaza Strip, resulting in the death of two Palestinian civilians and injuries to several others, as per reports from local and medical sources.

The sources also indicated that one civilian was killed and several others were wounded in Israeli artillery shelling on the neighborhoods of al-Zaytoun, Tal al-Hawa, and Sheikh Ajleen in Gaza City.

Additionally, Israeli warships reportedly fired heavy machine gun rounds at the fishermen's port, the al-Shati camp refugee camp west of Gaza City, and the beach of Rafah City in the south of the Gaza Strip.

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.
