Gaza death toll rises

Israeli attacks killed at least 83 Palestinians, including 53 aid seekers, and injured 554 others across Gaza in the past 24 hours, the Palestinian Ministry of Health said in a statement on Telegram.

Rescuers also recovered one body from the rubble of previous Israeli attacks, the statement.

Israel’s war on Gaza has killed 60,332 people and injured 147,643 since 7 October 2023, the health ministry said on Wednesday.

It added that 1,383 Palestinians seeking aid have been killed and more than 9,218 wounded since 27 May, when Israel introduced its controversial system for distributing humanitarian aid.
