17 Palestinians were killed in Israeli air strikes across several areas in Gaza since dawn today, Al Jazeera Arabic reported, quoting hospital sources.
The Palestinian Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip has said that the death toll since Israel began its war in October 2023 has risen to 63,459, and more than 160,256 others have been wounded.
Hospitals in Gaza recorded seven new deaths on Sunday as a result of the famine caused by Israel's months-long blockade of essential aid. This brings the total number of deaths from malnutrition to 339, including 124 children.
Gaza’s Government Media Office has said the number of journalists killed in Israel’s war on Gaza has risen to 247 following the death of journalist Islam Abed on Sunday.
