Hospitals across the Gaza Strip have reported 26 martyrs and 60 injuries in the past 24 hours, as Israeli bombardment continues to escalate.

According to local health authorities, numerous victims remain trapped under the rubble and scattered across roads, with emergency and civil defense teams unable to reach them due to ongoing shelling and destruction.

The overall toll of "Israel’s" military offensive on Gaza, which began on October 7, 2023, has now climbed to 51,266 martyrs and 116,991 injured.

Since March 18, 2025, alone, 1,890 people have been killed and 4,950 injured, highlighting the intensification of the assault in recent weeks.

Civil Defense spokesperson Mahmoud Basal told Agence France-Presse (AFP) that "Israel" launched several violent airstrikes at dawn on Tuesday on Gaza City, Beit Lahia, Beit Hanoun, and Khan Younis, resulting in the deaths of seven civilians.

Basal detailed that four civilians were killed in an Israeli strike on the Bakr family home in the al-Rimal neighborhood, west of Gaza City.

Additionally, two civilians died when warplanes targeted a house in the al-Sabra area, also west of Gaza. One more civilian was killed in Khan Younis following a separate airstrike.
