The Gaza Strip remains engulfed in turmoil, with the latest reports confirming the loss of at least 79 Palestinian lives within the past 24 hours. Ongoing Israeli attacks have raised the overall death toll to 53,901 since the resurgence of violence in October 2023, as detailed by medical sources.

The local health authorities have disclosed a grim picture, revealing that the majority of the fatalities are comprised of women and children. In addition to the staggering death toll, 122,593 individuals have been reported injured amidst the relentless conflict rocking the region.
