Five Palestinians, including a woman and two children, were killed, in addition to a number of wounded and a number of missing persons, after the occupation forces bombed a residential apartment in the northwest area of the Gaza Strip.
TRT World issued a report on the severe food scarcity and famine in Gaza:
The Israeli occupation forces have continued their aggression on the Gaza Strip by land, sea and air since October 7, 2023, resulting in the killing of 41,467 citizens and the injury of 95,921 others, most of whom are children and women, while thousands of people are still missing under the rubble.

In central Gaza, an Israeli military drone fired a missile at a car in Deir Al-Balah, killing two Palestinians and wounding at least three, in the eastern part of the city.
The Israeli occupation forces have continued their aggression on the Gaza Strip by land, sea, and air since October 7, 2023, resulting in the killing of 41,455 citizens and the injury of 95,878 others, most of whom are children and women, while thousands of people are still missing under the rubble.
Among the slain Palestinians are at least 16,640 children, 11,410 women, 183 journalists and 23 emergency responders, 885 medical staff, 82 Civil Defense staff, and 211 UNRWA staff.
The British Lancet Medical Journal and other experts estimate the death toll in Gaza is much higher – and could be above 200,000 when counting both direct and indirect deaths related to the Israeli war on Gaza.
This most recent escalation of Israel’s ongoing military occupation of Palestine began October 7th 2023 when 1,143 Israelis were killed, including 767 civilians and 376 armed soldiers. Around 500 Israeli soldiers have been killed between October 7th and now – both in Gaza and on the Israeli border with Lebanon.
