The Gaza government says Israel has committed 3,654 massacres in the Gaza Strip in its year-long genocidal war on the besieged Palestinian territory.
The government media office in Gaza released the figure in a statement on Sunday, marking a year since the occupying regime unleashed its brutal Gaza onslaught, which has killed nearly 42,000 innocent people, mostly women and children.
It said that the Israeli aggression has left 25,973 children without one or both parents and disrupted the education of 718,000 students in Gaza.
Meanwhile, it added, 34 hospitals and 80 healthcare centers have been rendered inoperable as a result of the Israeli offensive, which has plunged Gaza into a humanitarian catastrophe and displaced at least 1.9 million Palestinians.
The media office also said that the occupation’s military has targeted 162 health facilities, 131 ambulances, 187 shelters, and 456 schools and universities, in the Gaza Strip over the past year.
It further noted that 87,000 homes have been leveled in the blockaded territory due to Israeli attacks, with damage to critical infrastructure estimated to be approximately $18.5 billion.
So far, 986 medics and 85 members of the Palestinian Civil Defense have been killed by Israel, it said, adding that 902 families have been wiped off the civil registry and 36 people have died of malnutrition in Gaza.
Israel waged its devastating war on the Gaza Strip on October 7 las year, after the Hamas resistance group carried out its historic operation against the usurping entity in retaliation for the regime’s intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.
The Tel Aviv regime has so far killed at least 41,870 Palestinians and injured 97,166 others, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.
In a violation of international law, Israel has been deliberately targeting Gaza schools, mosques, and hospitals, which were being used as shelters by civilians.
The International Court of Justice (ICJ), the United Nations’ top court, found a “plausible risk” of genocide in Gaza. In a separate case, the chief prosecutor of the International Criminal Court (ICC) requested arrest warrants for Israeli officials for war crimes and crimes against humanity.
