Gazans recover more bodies from rubble as death toll nears 48,300
Despite the ceasefire, Gaza’s local authorities have reported almost daily violations by the Israeli army.
ANKARA - Palestinian medics and rescue teams recovered nine more bodies from the rubble in the Gaza Strip, pushing the overall death toll from Israel’s genocidal war since October 2023 to 48,284, the Health Ministry said on Monday.
A ministry statement said that the toll also included four Palestinians killed by Israeli army fire in the last 24 hours, Anadolu Ajansi (AA) reported.
According to the ministry, 16 injured people were also admitted to hospitals, bringing the total number of injured to 111,709 in the Israeli onslaught.
"Many victims are still trapped under the rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them,” the ministry said.
A ceasefire agreement has been in place in Gaza since Jan 19, pausing the Israeli war that has caused widespread destruction and left the Palestinian enclave in ruins.
Despite the ceasefire, Gaza’s local authorities have reported almost daily violations by the Israeli army.
The International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants in November last year 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 (ICJ) over its war on the enclave. - BERNAMA-ANADOLU
