In the past 24 hours, Israeli occupation forces committed four massacres against families and civilians in Gaza, killing 28 Palestinians and injuring 69 others.
This brings the total death toll to 34,971 Palestinians murdered by "Israel" and 78,641 injured. Victims are still trapped beneath the rubble as rescue and civil defense teams are unable to reach them.
The IOF killed dozens of Palestinian civilians overnight Saturday as they continued waging brutal, indiscriminate airstrikes all over the Gaza Strip.
One of the airstrikes killed Palestinian journalist Bahaa Akasheh, his wife, and his son after their house in the Jabaliya refugee camp of northern Gaza was bombarded. With Akasheh's death, the number of Gaza journalists killed in the Strip has risen to 143, according to the Gaza Government Media Office.
