On day 326 of the Israeli genocide in Gaza, the total number of Palestinians killed since the Israeli onslaught started on October 7 has risen to 40,476, and those injured to 93,647, according to the Gaza Health Ministry's daily report.

Over the past 24 hours, the Israeli occupation forces committed three massacres across the Gaza Strip, killing 41 Palestinians and injuring 113 others.

While a number of victims were transported to partially functioning hospitals and medical centers, others remain trapped beneath the rubble, with defense and rescue crews unable to reach them, the statement pointed out.

The bodies of two unidentified individuals have been retrieved from the Shakoush area, west of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.

Moreover, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that an Israeli strike on a house in the Al-Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza has caused multiple casualties, including both fatalities and injuries.
