The Palestinian Health Ministry revealed in its latest report that the number of Martyrs in the ongoing Israeli crimes across Palestine surpassed 8,700 in Gaza, including over 3,500 children, and reached 130 in the West Bank.

Additionally, the ministry's statement said that the number of injured people in the Strip reached 22,000 and 2,100 in the West Bank.

The Israeli occupation committed two separate massacres in the Jabalia refugee camp between Wednesday and Thursday, both of which included the destruction of an entire residential neighborhood. The camp was initially designated for thousands of Palestinian refugees who were forced toward Gaza in the 1948 Nakba.

In the Wednesday massacre, Israeli war jets dropped six bombs, each loading 1 tons of explosives, leveling a residential bloc, and killing over 400 people. The second massacre resulted in the martyrdom of tens of people. Both tolls are not final.
