The number of Palestinians killed since the start of the Israeli aggression on Gaza on October 7 has risen to 37,431 and those injured to 85,653, the Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip confirmed on Thursday.

In its daily report, the Health Ministry mentioned that the Israeli occupation forces committed four massacres in the past 24 hours, killing a total of 35 people and injuring 130 others.

It noted that many victims remain under the rubble and on the roads, as ambulance and civil defense crews are unable to reach them.

Day 258 of the war

Deir al-Balah, central Gaza, and Rafah, among other cities and neighborhoods in the Strip, were subject to intense and violent Israeli bombardments on the 258th day of the genocide. 

Gaza's Health Ministry, meanwhile, revealed that 47,000 Palestinians have been killed or gone missing as a result of over 3,000 massacres committed by "Israel" in the Gaza Strip. 

98% of Palestinian children in Gaza cannot find clean, drinkable water, according to the ministry, which added that it has been trying to revive vital departments in the al-Shifa Medical Complex and the Indonesian Hospital, which were repeatedly deliberately targeted by the Israeli occupation as it continues destroying Gaza's health system.

Israeli occupation forces (IOF) targeted the headquarters of the Ministry of Development in al-Baraka Street in Deir al-Balah, killing a Palestinian martyr and injuring others. A group of Palestinians was also targeted in the easternmost part of the city, resulting in casualties.

Moreover, the vicinity of the Abraj al-Qastal area in easternmost Deir al-Balah was also bombarded. 

33 Palestinian prisoners previously held by the Israeli occupation have simultaneously arrived at Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, after being held in easternmost Deir al-Balah. 

A house in the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza was targeted, killing a woman and injuring several other Palestinians. 

The occupation's artillery additionally shelled the al-Zaytoun neighborhood. 

IOF target all of Rafah

In southernmost Gaza, an intense airstrike and artillery shelling targeted western Rafah, bombarding residential squares. 

Al Mayadeen's correspondent in Gaza reported the killings of two Palestinians during the Israeli aggression that targeted Rafah overnight. 

He further noted that the IOF continued targeting areas in western Rafah, while Israeli artillery shelled several neighborhoods in eastern and central Rafah. 

Meanwhile, northern Rafah remains under heavy Israeli airstrikes. 

Our correspondent also reported on a new Israeli massacre committed by "Israel" on Wednesday evening against tradespeople and crews responsible for aid deliveries entering through the Karem Abu Salem crossing, which killed 12 individuals. 

The IOF also launched heavy fire against easternmost Khan Younis, while Israeli drones actively targeted Palestinian gatherings.
