AhlulBayt News Agency: The casualties resulting from Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip have risen to at least 21,110 killed and 55,243 injured since October 7, Gaza Health Ministry Spokesperson Ashraf Al-Qudra stated on Tuesday.

Moreover, the statement said 195 people had been killed in the past 24 hours and 325 injured, Al-Jazeera reported.

According to Gaza Health Ministry at least 20 killed and many more injured in deadly Israeli army strike near Al-Amal Hospital in Khan Younis.

Al-Qudra also said Israeli forces are increasing their attacks around Khan Younis’s Nasser Hospital in Southern Gaza, warning the facility faces a similar fate as Al-Shifa Hospital.

“We call on UN institutions to take effective and urgent steps to ensure the protection of the Nasser Medical Complex, its staff, the wounded and sick, and the thousands of displaced people there,” he said.

Israel started its military aggression against Gaza on October 7 following an operation by the territory's resistance groups, dubbed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm.

The Israeli onslaught has left Gaza in ruins with half of the coastal territory's housing stock damaged or destroyed, and nearly 2 million people displaced within the densely populated enclave amid shortages of food and clean water.
