Israel’s Genocide in Gaza: 202 Palestinians Killed in 48 Hours

Gaza Strip: At least 202 Palestinians were killed and 1,037 others were injured in the Gaza Strip over the last 48 hours as a result of the ongoing Israeli genocide in the region, according to medical sources.

According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, local health authorities confirmed that the Palestinian death toll from the Israeli onslaught since October 2023 has risen to 55,908 fatalities, with an additional 131,138 people sustaining injuries. The majority of the victims are women and children.

The death toll since Israel's resumption of the genocide on March 18, after a two-month truce, has also climbed to 5,599, with 19,097 others injured, as reported by the same sources. Emergency services are still unable to reach many casualties and dead bodies trapped under the rubble or scattered on roads across the war-torn enclave. Israeli occupation forces continue to target ambulance and civil defense crews, according to the health authorities.

Israel's genocidal onslaught continues undeterred despite calls from the United Nations Security Council for an immediate ceasefire and directives from the International Court of Justice urging measures to prevent genocide and alleviate the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza.
