Sudan Events – Sumaya Sayed
At least 23,708 Palestinians have been killed and 60,005 wounded in Israeli strikes in Gaza since Oct. 7, the Palestinian health ministry said in a statement.
Some 151 Palestinians had been killed and 248 injured in the past 24 hours, the ministry added.
UN human rights office says Israel has repeatedly failed to uphold international humanitarian law since it launched its invasion in Gaza.
Israel’s latest attacks on Gaza have killed at least 151 people, including 11 in a single house, Palestinian health officials said, while the UN humanitarian office accused Israel of blocking its efforts to send aid to the north.
Residents reported continued aerial and ground fire across the territory from Israel.
Gaza health officials said the 11 people had been killed by a single air strike around dawn in a house in Deir Al Balah belonging to the Fayad family, a prominent name in the city.
