The Gaza Health Ministry said it registered the killing of at least 51 people in the past 24-hour reporting period with another 104 wounded, Al Jazeera reports.
The latest figures bring the number of people killed in Israeli attacks since the start of Israel’s war in October 2023 to at least 55,959 with 131,242 others wounded.
Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud, reporting from Gaza City, said attacks have been concentrated in southern Khan Younis, central Gaza, and northern Gaza City.
“The majority of people feel that Israel’s military has taken advantage of the distraction created by the rising escalation with Iran to continue carrying out more deadly attacks [in Gaza],” he said.
