The Ministry of Health in Gaza reported on Monday that the death toll resulting from the Israeli genocidal war on the Strip has reached 24,100 martyrs and 60,834 injuries after 101 days of of war.

This death toll, however, remains provisional, as thousands of Palestinians remain missing or under the rubble since October 7.

The ministry stated that, in the past 24 hours, the Israeli occupation committed 12 massacres against families in the Gaza Strip, resulting in 132 martyrs and 252 injuries.

Ashraf al-Qudra, the spokesperson for the Ministry of Health, told Al Mayadeen that the Israeli occupation is strangling the health system in Gaza, with most health centers going out of service.

Al-Qudra added that the occupancy rate in the hospitals that continue to operate in the Gaza Strip reached 360%, affirming that the situation is more than catastrophic.
