Marking 300 days of genocidal war on Gaza
Israeli military has waged 3,457 massacres so far: Gaza media office
Three hundred days into the war on Gaza, Israel has carried out 3,457 “massacres” in the enclave, according to the Gaza Government Media Office, leaving:
- 39,480 people killed
- 10,000 people missing
- 91,128 people injured
That means more than 6 percent of Gaza’s pre-war population of 2.2 million is now killed, injured or missing, according to the media office’s figures.
Of those killed, there are:
- 16,314 children
- 10,980 women
- 520 people buried in mass graves
- 35 people who died of starvation
Nearly all those still in Gaza have been pushed out of their homes, and more than 1.7 million of them have contracted infectious diseases due to the dismal conditions in displacement camps, said the media office.
Among those who are sick or wounded, 13,000 need urgent treatment abroad, it added.
