Gaza’s Government Media Office says a major Israeli ground offensive codenamed ‘Gideon’s Chariot’ launched in May has killed 9,073 civilians and injured 36,900, Al Jazeera reports.
The statement published on Telegram says the death toll includes 2,358 children, 1,088 women, and 455 elderly people. It said the remaining victims were men who were shot dead “in cold blood” at the GHF aid distribution sites and aid convoys entering Gaza.
“We demand that the international community take serious and effective action to stop these massacres committed by the occupation and hold it accountable, in accordance with the provisions of international humanitarian law,” the office concluded.
