In Numbers: Israeli regime’s genocidal war against Palestinians in Gaza

By Press TV Website Staff

The Israeli regime's fresh aggression on the blockaded Gaza Strip has completed 80 days.

From corpses lying unattended on the streets to hospitals and schools reduced to rubble to children made orphans and tens of thousands of people rendered homeless, the gory events unfolding in the besieged Gaza Strip since October 7 are a textbook example of genocide and ethnic cleansing.

The death toll in the coastal territory since the Israeli regime launched its indiscriminate aerial and ground attacks exactly 80 days ago is now close to 21,000, most of them children and women.

Almost all hospitals and medical centers in the Gaza Strip have become defunct due to infrastructure damages as well as the lack of electricity and fuel to keep the essential services running.

Schools and universities have also been bombed. Bakeries remain shut. Almost all refugee camps have been rendered uninhabitable due to random strikes, forcing the majority of the population to sleep under the open sky amid heavy winds and heavy downpours.
