At least 48 Palestinians have been killed and several more injured as Israeli regime forces continue with air and artillery strikes across the Gaza Strip.

Gaza Health Ministry said that the Israeli occupation army committed five massacres in different areas of the Gaza Strip during the past 24 hours killing and injuring hundreds of people while a large number of victims are still under the rubble of bombed buildings or lying on roads.

The health ministry added that the death toll from the ongoing Israeli bombardments and shooting attacks, which started on October 7, climbed to nearly 34,100 and the number of the wounded surged to 76,980 people.

Besides the large number of casualties and the huge displacement of people, basic food, fuel, water and medical supplies have run out for the 2.3 million residents in Gaza due to the tight Israeli blockade and the massive destruction of infrastructure and facilities.

The death toll from the Israeli occupation warplanes and artillery targeting two Palestinian civilian homes in the city of Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip on Sunday dawn rose to 19, including 14 children.

The first airstrike targeted a house killing a man, his wife and their daughter in Ashdod camp area in the center of Rafah. The sources added that the second raid targeted a house in east of Rafah, killing 15 civilians, including 13 children and two women.
