Gaza health ministry spokesman Ashraf Al-Qidra said in a statement on Saturday afternoon that “Since the resumption of aggression against Gaza yesterday (Friday), 193 Palestinians have been martyred and 600 others have been injured, bringing the total number of martyrs to 15,207 people since the aggression began on October 7.”
He said that 70% of the victims of the aggression of the Zionist regime are children and women.
The spokesman of the Gaza Ministry of Health continued to say that, “The occupiers are deliberately targeting the health system and medical centers to disable them. 80,000 people in the north of the Gaza Strip are without food and medicine, and the bombing threatens their lives.”
Al-Qidra also clarified, “Contrary to the claims of the occupiers, there is no safe place in the entire Gaza Strip.”
The Zionist forces resumed bombing the Gaza Strip early Friday after declaring an end to a week-long humanitarian pause with the Palestinian resistance group, Hamas.
At least 178 Palestinians were killed and 589 injured on Friday in Zionist airstrikes, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.
The humanitarian pause began on Nov. 24 as part of an agreement between Israel and Hamas to temporarily halt fighting to allow hostage swaps and aid delivery.
More than 15,000 Palestinians, mostly children and women, have been killed in Israeli attacks since Oct. 7 following a cross-border attack by Hamas.
Around 1,200 Zionist regime soldiers and Zionist settlers were killed, according to official estimates.
