ANKARA, May 5 (Bernama-Anadolu) -- At least 34,683 Palestinians have been killed in Israel’s ongoing offensive on the Gaza Strip since last October, the Health Ministry in the besieged enclave said on Sunday.
A ministry statement added that 78,018 other people have also been injured in the onslaught.
“Israeli attacks killed 29 people and injured 110 others in the last 24 hours,” Anadolu Agency reported the statement said.
“Many people are still trapped under rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them,” it added.
More than six months into the Israeli war, vast swathes of Gaza lay in ruins, pushing 85% of the enclave’s population into internal displacement amid a crippling blockade of food, clean water and medicine, according to the UN.
Israel stands accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice. An interim ruling in January ordered Tel Aviv to stop genocidal acts and take measures to guarantee that humanitarian assistance is provided to civilians in Gaza.
