ANKARA, May 13 (Bernama-Anadolu) -- At least 52,908 Palestinians have been killed in Israel’s genocidal war since October 2023, the Health Ministry said on Tuesday, Anadolu Ajansi (AA) reported.
A ministry statement said that 46 people were killed in Israeli attacks in the enclave in the last 24 hours, while 73 others were injured, taking the number of injuries to 119,721 in the Israeli onslaught.
“Many victims are still trapped under the rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them,” it added.
The Israeli army resumed its assaults on the Gaza Strip on March 18 and has since killed 2,780 people and injured nearly 7,700 others, shattering a ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement that took hold in January.
Last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.
