The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced today that since October 7, the number of Palestinians martyred by the Israeli genocide against Gaza has risen to 29,195 and those injured to 69,170. 

This comes as the Israeli occupation forces committed 9 massacres in 24 hours only murdering 103 Palestinians and injuring 142 others. 

Many victims still remain under the rubble as the IOF deliberately prevents ambulances and civil defense crews from reaching them, the Ministry said.

Nasser Medical Complex under IOF's ongoing aggression

The Ministry also revealed that 18 patients from Nasser Medical Complex have been evacuated to field hospitals with 118 others still inside the complex.

It emphasized that the situation inside the complex has exceeded a catastrophe and constitutes a direct threat to the lives of patients and medical staff, Israeli forces have turned the medical complex into a military barracks, stressing that the complex has no water, electricity, and oxygen, and that children have been left with no milk, all accounting to the lack of decent medical attention amid a severely deterring situation. 

The ministry urged international organizations to use all means possible and pressure the Israeli occupation to end its offensive on the medical complex in turn prompting its revival and access to all humanitarian and medical needs.

UN agencies warn of 'explosion' in Gaza child deaths

The United Nations warned Monday that an alarming lack of food, surging malnutrition, and the rampant spread of disease could spark an explosion in child deaths in Gaza.

Twenty weeks into the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, UN agencies warned that food and safe water had become "incredibly scarce" in the Palestinian territory, adding that virtually all young children had infectious illnesses.

"The Gaza Strip is poised to witness an explosion in preventable child deaths which would compound the already unbearable level of child deaths in Gaza," expressed Ted Chaiban, deputy head of humanitarian action at the UN children's agency UNICEF.

At least 90% of children under five in Gaza are affected by one or more infectious diseases, according to a joint assessment by the UN agencies for children, food, and health.

Seventy percent had had diarrhea in the two weeks before the assessment, marking a 23-fold increase compared to the 2022 baseline.

"Hunger and disease are a deadly combination," World Health Organization emergencies director Mike Ryan said in a statement.
