Gaza Death Toll Tops 52,600 as Israel Kills 48 More Palestinians

Gaza: At least 52,615 Palestinians have been killed in Israel's ongoing conflict since October 2023, the Health Ministry reported on Tuesday.

According to Anadolu Agency, a ministry statement revealed that 48 people lost their lives in Israeli attacks within the last 24 hours. Additionally, 142 others were injured, bringing the total number of injuries to 118,752 in the continued Israeli offensive. The statement highlighted that many victims remain trapped under debris and on roads, as rescuers are unable to reach them.

The Israeli army resumed its offensive on the Gaza Strip on March 18, resulting in the deaths of over 2,500 individuals and injuries to more than 6,700 others, despite a ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement that commenced in January.

In a significant development last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, citing war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. Israel is also facing a genocide case at the International Court of Justice concerning its actions in the enclave.
