Khalil al-Daqran, spokesperson for the Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip, said Israeli attacks on Gaza have killed 710 and injured 900 Palestinians since Tuesday, according to Al Jazeera Arabic.

Many of the wounded have died due to a lack of urgent medical care, as essential equipment and medicines remain in short supply, Al-Daqran said.

Around 70 percent of those injured are women and children, and most of their injuries are serious, he added.
