The Palestinian Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip announced on Saturday that more than 42,000 Palestinians have been martyred since the outbreak of war on October 7, 2023.
The ministry in a statement announced the latest number of martyred and wounded Palestinians in the Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip since October 7 of the previous year.
The ministry added that 49 Palestinians were martyred and 219 others were wounded in Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip in the past 24 hours.
Israel waged a genocidal war on the besieged Gaza on October 7, 2023, after the Palestinian Hamas Resistance group carried out a historic operation against the occupying entity in retaliation for the regime’s intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.
Israel has imposed a complete siege on the densely populated territory, cutting off fuel, electricity, food, and water to the more than two million Palestinians living there.
