AhlulBayt News Agency: The Palestinian Health Ministry said that Israeli occupation forces (IOF) have carried out 20 massacres over the past 24 hours against entire families in Gaza, claiming the lives of 210 people and injuring 360 others.

The medical authorities affirmed that the toll of Israeli aggression on Gaza had risen to 21,320 victims and 55,603 wounded since October 7.

Spokesman for the Health Ministry Ashraf al-Qudra indicated that 312 health personnel were killed during the Israeli attacks, while hundreds more were injured.

The Israeli occupation deliberately targeted 142 medical facilities, put 23 hospitals and 53 primary care centers out of service, and destroyed 104 ambulances, he added

Al-Qudra also pointed out that Israel is still detaining 99 health personnel from the Gaza Strip, including the directors of hospitals in northern Gaza, Dr. Muhammad Abu Salmiya, Dr. Ahmed Al-Kahlot, and Dr. Ahmed Muhanna, in inhumane conditions and subjecting them to severe torture and abuse.

He pointed out that the Israeli occupation targeted the vicinity of the Nasser Medical Complex and the Al-Amal Hospital affiliated with the Red Crescent Society in Khan Yunis several times, warning of repeating the same scenario of what happened to Al-Shifa Medical Complex.

He called on international institutions to take effective and urgent steps to ensure the protection of Nasser Medical Complex, its personnel, the wounded and patients, and thousands of displaced people there.

Al-Qudra stated that the Ministry received several specialized medical teams in cooperation with international institutions to support Gaza’s exhausted medical staff, calling for allowing the entry of more specialized teams to save the lives of the thousands of wounded.

Since Oct. 7, the Israeli occupation army has launched a bloody aggression on the Gaza Strip, causing a severe humanitarian and health catastrophe.
