The Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza announced on Wednesday that, on the 341st day of the ongoing Israeli genocidal war on the Strip, the number of martyrs has risen to 41,084, with 95,029 others wounded.

In the past 24 hours, the Israeli occupation has committed four massacres against families in Gaza, resulting in 64 martyrs and 104 injuries the ministry said.

Meanwhile, other casualties remain under the rubble and on the streets, with the occupation army preventing the search and rescue missions of the ambulance and civil defense teams, it concluded.

On Tuesday, the World Food Programme (WFP) warned that 2.2 million Palestinians in Gaza are still in "urgent" need of food help after 11 months of Israeli brutal aggression.

According to WFP statistics, 96% of Gaza's population is facing severe food insecurity, with 2.15 million people experiencing crisis levels of hunger or worse, as the Israeli occupation continues to use famine as a weapon of war.

The global institution further warned that almost half a million people in Gaza are in "catastrophic conditions".

It stated that in order to make a breakthrough and avert famine, significant and sustained amounts of humanitarian assistance are required, emphasizing the significance of "law and order" in delivering an effective humanitarian response to rising demands.
