The number of Palestinians killed in Gaza since the start of the Israeli war in October has risen to 40,988 and those injured to 94,825, the Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza said on Monday as the genocide marked its 339th day.

In its daily report, the Ministry mentioned that Israeli occupation forces committed two massacres in Gaza, killing 16 people and wounding 64 others in 24 hours only. 

It also noted that many casualties remain trapped under the rubble and on the streets, with ambulances and civil defense teams unable to reach them.

In the newest targeting, five were killed as the Israeli occupation targeted a residential apartment of the Abu Bakr family next to the Jordanian Hospital in the Tal al-Hawa neighborhood, southwest of Gaza City.

In another massacre, five Palestinians were killed, including a child and three women, and several were injured in an Israeli airstrike that targeted the al-Hanawi family's home near Jabalia al-Balad center in the northern Gaza Strip.

Gut-wrenching footage of children being pulled out from under the rubble was circulated on social media.

News circulated on social media reported that the Israeli occupation murdered a pediatrician Dr. Ziad El-Tetary.

El-Tetary has been offering free consultations to all citizens in Gaza since the aggression began.

Israeli occupation forces also blew up entire residential buildings in the al-Zaytoun neighborhood, southeast of Gaza City.

A series of Israeli airstrikes struck homes earlier on Monday in the al-Bureij and the Nuseirat refugee camps in central Gaza, killing seven Palestinians and injuring several others.

The targeted attacks hit residential areas, causing significant casualties and damage and adding to the devastating situation in the besieged territory.

In a related context, Israeli warplanes bombed a residence in the al-Bureij camp, resulting in the killing of four Palestinians and injuries to others who were transferred to al-Awda Hospital, according to the Palestinian news agency WAFA.

2.2 million Palestinians in Gaza in 'urgent' need of food, aid: WFP

The World Food Program (WFP) has sounded the alarm that 2.2 million Palestinians in Gaza are still in "urgent" need of food aid after 11 months of war.

In a post, the UN aid agency reiterated that "a ceasefire is needed!"

And 2.2 million people are still in urgent need of food & livelihood assistance.

Despite @WFP’s commitment to deliver aid, evacuation orders are hindering our efforts, and needs are on the rise.

The Israeli massacres have not stopped since October 7, accompanied by a brutal siege forcing the residents of the Gaza Strip into famine and a humanitarian crisis marred with the lack of sanitation.

WHO convoys banned entry

The Israeli occupation also prevented the World Health Organization convoys from entering the Gaza Strip. WHO confirmed that "Israel" is not allowing the organization to bring fuel, medicines, equipment, and aid into the Gaza Strip, noting that 46 convoys in Egypt are awaiting "Israel's" approval to enter the Strip.

On his part, the Director General of the Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip, Munir al-Bursh, explained that the occupation has banned the entry of the United Nations and World Health Organization convoys loaded with medicines and fuel for the fifth time in a week.

He also confirmed that the occupation forces prevented the entry of a convoy of polio vaccines into northern Gaza.

Children in Gaza deserve lasting peace: WHO

Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, the director-general of the World Health Organization, reported Monday that the polio vaccine campaign in southern Gaza has successfully wrapped up, with over 446,000 children vaccinated since its launch on September 1.

Ghebreyesus wrote on X that five health facilities will continue to vaccinate to "make sure no child is missed."

The #polio vaccination campaign in south #Gaza has concluded with over 446,000 children being vaccinated since the start of the campaign on 1st September.

The director-general also expressed that ongoing humanitarian pauses are essential for the successful completion of the vaccination campaign across the Gaza Strip.

Preparations are currently underway for the launch of the vaccination campaign in northern Gaza, Ghebreyesus explained.

However, he underlined that "the children in Gaza deserve lasting peace, not just polio vaccines."
