At least 37,296 Palestinians have been killed in Israel’s ongoing offensive on the Gaza Strip since last October, the Health Ministry in the besieged enclave said on Saturday.

A ministry statement said 85,197 others have also been injured in the onslaught continuing for over eight months.

“Israeli attacks killed 30 people and injured 95 others in the last 24 hours,” the statement said. “Many people are still trapped under rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them."

Israeli actions since an Oct. 7 cross-border attack that claimed 1,200 lives have also triggered a humanitarian disaster and an ongoing trial over alleged genocide at the International Court of Justice.
