Death toll in Gaza passes over 44,930 as Israeli attacks rage on

The death toll in the Gaza Strip has risen to 44,930, with over 106,624 people injured, according to the Health Ministry in the enclave.
In a recent statement, the ministry reported that 55 people were killed and 170 wounded in four family-targeted massacres over the past 24 hours.
Rescue operations remain severely hindered, with many individuals trapped under rubble or stranded as rescuers struggle to navigate blocked roads.
The conflict, described as genocidal, was triggered by a cross-border attack by Hamas in October 2023, leading to an unrelenting Israeli military offensive on Gaza.
Growing international condemnation has intensified as officials and institutions accuse Israel of deliberate population destruction through attacks and the blockade of aid deliveries.
Last month, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, citing war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Additionally, Israel faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ), further escalating the international legal and moral scrutiny of its actions in the conflict.
