TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - At least 46 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip, bringing the death toll since last year to 44,976, the Health Ministry in the enclave said on Sunday, as reported by Anadolu Agency. Most of the dead were Palestinian women and children.
A ministry statement added that some 106,759 other Palestinians have been injured in the ongoing attacks.
"Israeli forces killed 46 people and injured 135 others in five massacres of families in the past 24 hours," the ministry said.
"Many people are still trapped under rubble and on the roads as rescue teams are unable to reach them," it said.
Israel has continued its genocidal war on the Gaza Strip since Hamas's offensive on Oct. 7 last year despite a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire.
The second year of the genocide in Gaza has drawn growing international condemnation, with officials and institutions labeling the attacks and blocking of aid deliveries as a deliberate attempt to destroy the population.
Last month, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel is also facing a genocide case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) over the deadly war in Gaza.
