At least 127 Palestinians were killed and 205 others injured in the last 24 hours as Israel continues its onslaught on the besieged Gaza Strip, the Palestinian Health Ministry said on Sunday.

“The Israeli occupation committed 13 massacres against families in the Gaza Strip, leaving 127 martyrs and 205 injured during the past 24 hours,” the ministry said in a statement.

“Many people are still trapped under rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them,” the statement said.

Flouting the International Court of Justice’s provisional ruling, Israel continues its onslaught on the Gaza Strip where at least 28,985 Palestinians have been killed, mostly women and children, and 68,883 injured since Oct. 7, according to Palestinian health authorities.

Israel has pounded the Gaza Strip since the cross-border attack by Hamas, which Tel Aviv says killed nearly 1,200 people.

The Israeli offensive has left 85% of Gaza’s population internally displaced amid acute shortages of food, clean water, and medicine, while 60% of the enclave’s infrastructure was damaged or destroyed, according to the UN.
