On Saturday, 31 Palestinians were killed in a barbaric Israeli attack on the besieged Palestinian territory of Gaza. With this, the total number of victims in the valley has exceeded 40,939 and more than 94,000 Palestinians have been injured since October last year.

Meanwhile, health workers completed the second phase of the emergency polio vaccination program to prevent a large-scale outbreak amid brutal attacks by Israel.

According to Al Jazeera report, three women and two children were killed in central Gaza's Nuseirat refugee camp on Saturday by Israeli shelling. Separately, Gaza's Civil Defense Agency said at least eight people were killed in an Israeli attack on a school used as a shelter for displaced Palestinians. Twenty people were injured in the attack on the Amr Ibn Al-As school in the Abu Iskandar area of Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in northern Gaza City.

Gaza's Health Ministry said on Saturday, at least 61 more Palestinians were killed in Israel's ongoing attacks in the Gaza Strip. Due to this, the total number of dead has increased to 40,939 since October last year. The ministry said in a statement that at least 94,616 people were also injured in this relentless attack. Many people are still trapped under the rubble and on the streets as rescuers are unable to reach them.

Palestinian health authorities believe more than 10,000 people are still missing under the rubble of destroyed homes across the Gaza Strip. Despite a UN Security Council resolution essentially demanding an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, Israel has continued its brutal assault on the besieged territory.

It should be noted that since the unprecedented cross-border attack by Hamas on October 7, Israel has been carrying out continuous air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip. Thousands of buildings including hospitals, schools, refugee camps, mosques, churches have been damaged or destroyed in this Israeli attack.

According to the United Nations, about 85 percent of Gaza's Palestinians have been displaced by Israel's brutal offensive. And with acute shortages of food, clean water and medicine, all of Gaza is now food insecure. Moreover, 60 percent of the infrastructure in the besieged territory has been damaged or destroyed. Israel has already been accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice.
