More than a week ago, Israel launched its new major offensive in the Gaza Strip. There are reports on dozens of deaths in the competitive coastal area every day.

According to Palestinian information, at least 38 people were killed in the Gaza Strip within a day. The Ministry of Health controlled by the Hamas also reported 204 injuries in the past 24 hours. The Ministry does not differentiate between combatants and civilians. The information cannot currently be verified.

The ministry also said that the current figures did not include the victims who were registered in hospitals in the north of the area. Access to these is currently too difficult.

Since the beginning of the Gaza War with the unprecedented Hamas massacre in Israel on October 7, 2023, more than 53,900 people have been killed. More than 122,700 were injured.

In the past few days, dozens of deaths had been reported from the coastal area. Israel’s military had started a new major offensive in the Gaza Strip a week ago. Soil troops have also been in use there for a few days. Internationally, there is increasing criticism of Israel’s approach in the sealed coastal area – including narrow allies.
