The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced today that the number of Palestinians killed by the Israeli genocide in Gaza has risen to 31,553, and those injured to 73,546.
The Israeli occupation forces committed 7 massacres in 24 hours, killing 63 Palestinians and injuring 112 others in 24 hours, the ministry reported.
The ministry stressed that many victims remain under the rubble as ambulances and civil defense crews are unable to reach them.
It is noteworthy that the numbers only account for martyrs officially registered with the Ministry, and there may be a significant number of martyrs whose bodies have not yet been accounted for or reached hospitals.

The Ministry of Health in Gaza reported on March 15 that 13 massacres were committed against families in the Gaza Strip, resulting in 149 martyrs and 300 injuries in 24 hours.
In a statement released by the government media office in Gaza concerning those awaiting aid, it confirmed that within 48 hours, the occupying forces committed five massacres resulting in numerous casualties, including dozens of martyrs and over 300 wounded Palestinians.
Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that the occupation opened fire on every Palestinian trying to retrieve martyrs or wounded from the Kuwait Roundabout massacre, southeast of Gaza City.
On the evening of March 14, an Israeli airstrike targeted a gathering of starved Palestinians waiting for humanitarian aid packages at the Kuwait Roundabout in southern Gaza, Al Mayadeen's correspondent had reported.
The casualties were transported to four different hospitals: Al-Maamadani and Al-Shifa in Gaza City, and Al-Awda and Kamal Adwan hospitals in northern Gaza. The Ministry of Health in Gaza, meanwhile, said rescue missions to pull out martyrs and injured individuals from underneath the rubble were still ongoing despite the difficulties and dangers on the field.
