According to medical sources quoted by the Palestinian news agency Wafa, since the beginning of the war campaign against this coastal enclave on 7 October 2023, 99,153 people have been wounded, and clarified that these figures only include those treated by hospitals and health centers.
The same sources added that thousands of victims are still under the rubble of destroyed buildings and homes, and medical and civil defense teams are unable to reach them for fear of being attacked by the Tel Aviv military.
On the other hand, they denounced that, during the last 24 hours, Israeli forces committed six massacres, resulting in 65 deaths and 140 wounded.
In addition, Israeli troops continue their onslaught against the north of the Gaza Strip, where for the twelfth consecutive day they are bombing by land, air and sea.
Furthermore, the Israeli troops are also preventing the arrival of supplies of food, water, medicine and fuel to the more than 400,000 Palestinians who remain in this area.
The town of Jabalia and its camp are among the areas most affected by the aggression, which has led to the collapse of infrastructure, the disruption of basic services and shortages of food and medicine, where civilians are faced with two options: either leave their homes by force or die of hunger and disease.
