International Desk: More than a hundred Palestinians have been killed in the barbaric Israeli attack on the occupied Palestinian territory of Gaza. With this, the total number of people killed in the valley has reached 35 thousand 562 people.

In addition, about 80,000 Palestinians have been injured in this attack since last October. Anadolu news agency reported this information in a report on Monday (May 20).

According to the report, the death toll from Israel's deadly attacks on the Gaza Strip since October 7 last year has risen to 35,562, the Health Ministry of the besieged territory said on Monday. The ministry also said in a statement that at least 79 thousand 652 people were injured in the attack. The ministry also said that 106 people were killed and another 176 injured in Israeli attacks in the last 24 hours.

Many people are still trapped under the rubble and on the streets as rescuers are unable to reach them. Anadolu says Israel continues its brutal attacks on the besieged territory despite a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. It should be noted that since the unprecedented cross-border attack by Hamas on October 7, Israel has been carrying out continuous air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip.

Thousands of buildings including hospitals, schools, refugee camps, mosques, churches have been damaged or destroyed in this Israeli attack. In addition, more than two million residents have been forced to leave their homes due to Israeli aggression. Basically the Israeli invasion has reduced Gaza to rubble.

According to the United Nations, about 85 percent of Gaza's Palestinians have been displaced by Israel's brutal offensive. And with acute shortages of food, clean water and medicine, all of Gaza is now food insecure. In addition, 60 percent of the infrastructure in the besieged territory has been damaged or destroyed. Israel has already been accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice.
