Israeli strikes killed 139 people in 24 hours

The Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza said Sunday the bodies of 139 people killed by Israeli strikes have been brought to hospitals in Gaza over the past 24 hours.

Hospitals also received 425 wounded, the ministry said in its daily report. 

The new deaths brought the death toll from the Israel-Hamas war to 58,026 since Oct. 7, 2023, the ministry said. Another 138,520 have been wounded, it said.

It said the tally includes 7,450 dead and 26,479 wounded since Israel resumed the war on March 18, shattering the ceasefire after nearly a two-month hiatus.

The ministry also said the bodies of 28 people have arrived at hospitals over the past 24 hours in aid-related casualties, in addition to more than 180 injured people. The total number of aid-related deaths reported at hospitals from designated aid distribution areas has now reached 833, with over 5,432 injuries, the ministry added.
