The Health Ministry of Gaza has reported that the number of Palestinians killed by Israeli air raids has surpassed 1,1000 and more than 5,300 people have been injured.

"As of 18:20 on Wednesday [local time, 15:20 GMT], a total of 1,100 citizens have been killed and 5,339 have been injured," according to a statement by the ministry.

The Israeli occupation continues its aggression against Gaza for the fifth day in a row, confirming it launched more than 200 raids on the al-Furqan neighborhood in the northern Gaza Strip.

The number of Palestinian martyrs rose to 922, including at least 260 children and 230 women. Some 4,650 others were injured as a result of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, the Palestinian Health Ministry had reported on Tuesday.

Gaza power plant shuts down 

The single power plant in Gaza shut down on Wednesday due to a lack of fuel, according to Jalal Ismail, the director of the exclave's energy administration.

"The only power plant in the Gaza Strip stopped at 14:00 [11:00 am GMT] due to lack of fuel," Ismail remarked.

Earlier in the day, Palestinian Health Minister Mai Salem Al-Kailah stated that the plant's stocks had just 10-12 hours' worth of gasoline, threatening "a humanitarian catastrophe for two million people."

The fuel supply for electric generators at Palestinian medical institutions will last until Thursday, according to the minister, after the Israeli occupation enforced an electrical blockade in response to Hamas's Operation Al-Aqsa Flood.
