In Numbers: 290 days of death and destruction unleashed by Israeli regime in Gaza

By Press TV Website Staff

The Israeli regime's genocidal war on the besieged Gaza Strip has completed 291 days and there are still so signs of this murderous aggression ending or even slowing down.

From dead bodies lying scattered on the streets to hospitals and schools razed down to children orphaned and millions rendered homeless, the events unfolding in the coastal Palestinian territory represent a textbook case of genocide and ethnic cleansing.

The death toll in the territory since the Israeli regime launched its indiscriminate aerial and ground assault exactly 291 days ago has surpassed 29,000, most of them children and women.

Almost all medical facilities in the territory have become defunct due to infrastructure damages as well as the lack of electricity and fuel to keep the essential services running.

There are no “safe zones” anymore and people are either putting up in makeshift shelters or refugee camps in both the northern and southern Gaza Strip, which are also exposed to Israeli attacks.
