Ahram Online , Thursday 9 Jan 2025

The death toll due to Israel's genocidal war on Gaza has risen to 46,006 people, most of whom are women and children, since 7 October 2023, the Palestinian health ministry announced on Thursday.

The ministry said in a statement that at least 109,378 people had been wounded in more than 15 months of the Israeli war.

In the past 24 hours, the occupation forces committed three massacres in Gaza, killing 70 Palestinians and wounding 104 others, the ministry added.

These figures are rough approximations, as thousands of bodies lie buried beneath the rubble, unreachable due to ongoing attacks.

Ambulances and rescue teams struggle against the relentless airstrikes to reach the injured and retrieve the dead.
