Over 160 Palestinians martyred over the past 24 hours in Gaza

The Ministry of Health said, in a press statement, “The death toll of the Israeli aggression has risen to 22,600 martyrs and 57.910 wounded since the seventh of October.”

Spokesman for the Health Ministry, Ashraf Al-Qudra, said in a press conference that 70% of the victims of the Zionist regime’s aggression are children and women.

Qudra said that the Zionist regime’s occupation army has killed in Gaza 326 health personnel and continues to kidnap 99 medical professionals, while 121 ambulances were destroyed.

Spokesman Qudra also said that the Israeli army deliberately targeted 150 health facilities in Gaza, put 30 hospitals and 54 medical centers out of service.

He appealed to UN institutions to work immediately on protecting the health system and its staff in Gaza, sending medical teams, and setting up field hospitals.

The Zionist regime has been intensively targeting the vicinity of Nasser Medical Complex, warning of repeating the same scenario as what happened to Al-Shifa Medical Complex, the health authorities added.

It also called on international institutions to take effective and urgent steps to ensure the protection of Nasser Medical Complex, its personnel, the wounded, patients, and thousands of displaced people there.

The ministry further appealed to international institutions to urgently intervene to operate the Al-Shifa Medical Complex again.
