The Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza has reported that 100 Palestinian martyrs were taken to the very few operating medical facilities in Gaza, including two whose bodies were recovered from under rubble, and 603 others injured over the past 24 hours as a result of the ongoing Israeli aggression on the besieged Gaza Strip.
Emergency and civil defense teams are still unable to reach countless victims trapped under the rubble or lying in the streets, due to continued strikes and unsafe conditions.
Since October 7, 2023, the total death toll from "Israel’s" brutal war on Gaza has reached 61,258 martyrs and 152,045 injuries.
From March 18, 2025, until today, the death toll stands at 9,752 martyrs and 40,004 injuries, highlighting the intensification of Israeli attacks in recent months.
Among the victims are 51 Palestinians killed and 230 injured while attempting to access humanitarian aid, bringing the total death toll at the so-called aid sites, or death traps, to 1,706 killed and over 12,030 injured.
Hospitals in Gaza recorded four new deaths in the past 24 hours due to starvation and malnutrition, raising the toll of the Israeli-made famine to 197 martyrs, including 96 children.
Breakdown of Thursday's aggression
Israeli airstrikes on Gaza killed and injured dozens of Palestinians early Thursday, as occupation warplanes launched a wave of intense raids across multiple areas of the besieged Strip, including civilian homes and tents sheltering displaced families.
According to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent, at least five Palestinians were martyred and others wounded after Israeli aircraft bombed a tent sheltering displaced people at the Tal site, southwest of Deir al-Balah in central Gaza.
In western Nuseirat camp, an Israeli helicopter strike hit an apartment in the al-Salhi tower near Abu Serrar roundabout, killing Anas Abdul Rahman al-Jammal, his wife, and their two daughters. The attack also left several civilians injured.
Additional casualties were reported following Israeli shelling on land sheltering displaced families in al-Bureij refugee camp, also in the central Gaza Strip.
Khan Younis: Child and mother among the martyred
In the southern Gaza Strip, airstrikes on the al-Mawasi area west of Khan Younis martyred several civilians, including 6-year-old Amir Mansour and her mother, after Israeli forces struck a tent near al-Sumoud camp. Fires broke out in multiple tents as a result of the attack.
Nearby, another airstrike targeted a tent adjacent to the Dream Hall, resulting in further deaths and injuries. Israeli warplanes also bombed the western Khan Younis camp, killing Ahmad Rubhi Abu Sahloul, his wife, and their children after hitting their home in the al-Qatatwa neighborhood.
In northern Gaza, an Israeli strike on a home belonging to the Zaqout family near the al-Nour al-Muhammadi mosque in Sheikh Radwan, Gaza City, killed three Palestinians and wounded others.
Another Israeli raid targeted a house near the al-Sousi mosque in al-Shati refugee camp, west of Gaza City, killing four civilians, including a child, and injuring several more. Simultaneously, multiple airstrikes hit the Shujaiya junction area in eastern Gaza City.
