Gaza death toll increases

TEHRAN, May 20 (MNA) – At least 35,562 Palestinians have been killed and 79,652 wounded in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7, the Health Ministry in the besieged and bombarded territory has announced.

The ministry said that 106 people were killed and 176 wounded in the latest 24-hour reporting period, according to Al Jazeera.

The death toll is estimated to be far higher with thousands believed buried in the debris of buildings collapsed during Israeli strikes.

Israel waged a genocidal war on the besieged Gaza on October 7 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.
