Israeli attacks on Gaza have killed at least 26 Palestinians in the past 24 hours, taking the death toll since October 2023 to 50,695, Al Jazeera reports quoting the enclave’s health ministry.

A ministry statement said that at least 113 other people were transferred to hospitals with injuries, taking the number of wounded people in the conflict to 115,338.

“Many victims are still trapped under the rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them,” it added.

Medical sources have given Al Jazeera a higher death toll for today, saying at least 46 people have been killed in Israeli attacks across Gaza in the previous 24 hours.
