Day 31: Death toll from Israel’s brutal onslaught on Gaza surpasses 10,000
The death toll from Israel’s brutal aggression on the Gaza Strip has surpassed 10,000, one month after the occupying regime launched a devastating war on Palestinians in the besieged area.
The Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza announced on Monday that the death toll from the incessant Israeli bombardment of the coastal sliver stood at 10,022 people, including 4,104 children and 2,641 women.
The Ministry also said the number of those wounded since October 7 had risen to 25,408.

Local media reported on Monday that the Israeli regime had conducted 18 attacks over the past hours, killing 252 people, across the besieged Gaza Strip.
With the Internet and all communications cut by Israel from the Gaza Strip, the Red Crescent and civil service said their crews have not been able to reach areas bombed by Israel to help with the search and rescue operations.
Reports added that 192 medical staff were killed and 32 ambulances destroyed since October 7, while 16 hospitals are now out of service.
Israel launched the war on Gaza on October 7 after the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas waged the surprise Operation Al-Aqsa Storm against the occupying entity in response to the Israeli regime’s decades-long campaign of bloodletting and devastation against Palestinians.
The regime has also cut off one of the most densely-populated places in the world from basic supplies, such as water, electricity, and fuel. Shortage of medical supplies and food has left 2.3 million Palestinians at risk of starvation.
In racist and inflammatory remarks on Sunday, far-right Israeli heritage minister Amichai Eliyahu called for dropping an atomic bomb on the besieged Gaza Strip.
Eliyahu said in an interview with Israel’s Radio Kol Berama that using an atomic bomb against Palestinians in Gaza was “one of the possibilities,” and insisted that allowing any humanitarian aid into the blockaded area was wrong.
The incendiary statement by the so-called Israeli heritage minister drew widespread condemnation from the international community and the Muslim world, with Hamas saying the illegal entity was founded on killing and genocide, and that Eliyahu's remarks bespoke Tel Aviv’s Nazism and sadism.
