Gaza's Government Media Office announced on Sunday that the Israeli occupation army committed two brutal massacres in the Central Governorate (Deir al-Balah) by bombing a mosque and a school sheltering displaced persons, resulting in 24 martyrs and 93 injured in a preliminary toll.

"The occupation army carried out two horrific massacres in the Central Governorate by shelling the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Mosque, adjacent to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, and Ibn Rushd School, both of which are housing hundreds of displaced people. As a result of these massacres, there are currently 24 martyrs and 93 injuries."

According to the statement, these two brutal massacres come after a series of attacks carried out by the occupation army, which bombed 27 houses, schools, and displacement centers across various governorates of the Gaza Strip in the past 48 hours. This ongoing bombardment has resulted in dozens of martyrs and injuries, coinciding with the dire health situation in Gaza, which is home to over 2.4 million people.

The statement detailed that the remaining hospitals are unable to provide adequate medical services to the increasing number of wounded and sick individuals, which is growing daily. Additionally, there are significant challenges facing humanitarian and medical work in Gaza due to the ongoing genocide, amid a shocking silence and paralysis from the international, Arab, and regional communities.

"We condemn the ongoing and brutal massacres committed by the Israeli occupation against civilians, children, and women. We call on all countries around the world to denounce these continuous crimes against the displaced and civilians." 

The Government Media Office held the Israeli occupation and the US administration fully responsible for the ongoing acts of genocide and the continued perpetration of these massacres against civilians in the Gaza Strip, demanding that the international community and all UN and international organizations exert pressure on the occupation to stop the acts of genocide and halt the flowing bloodshed in Gaza.

365 days of genocide

Yesterday was the 365th day of genocide on the Gaza Strip, and the Israeli occupation committed three massacres against Palestinians and their families, murdering 23 and injuring 66 more over the preceding 24 hours.

A number of the victims were transported to the few semi-operational hospitals and others are still stuck under the rubble as Israeli occupation forces continue to block their path and obstruct all rescue efforts. For 365 days, the Israeli occupation massacred Palestinian civilians and wreaked havoc in Gaza, raising the death toll to 41,825 civilians killed, and 96,910 more injured. 

"Israel" has murdered around 17,000 children since it launched its genocidal war on Gaza in October 2023, local authorities revealed. 

Ismail al-Thawabta, the head of Gaza’s Government Media Office, told Anadolu that at least 16,859 children, including 171 infants, have been killed by the Israeli war machine since October 7. He further added that "around 25,973 Palestinian children now live in Gaza without one or both parents due to the Israeli aggression."
