On day 342 of the Israel’s war with Gaza, 40 more Palestinians were killed in the last 24 hours while international condemnation mounted over an Israeli attack that killed at least 18 people at a United Nations-run school, including six aid workers.
UN chief Antonio Guterres reiterated his demand for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza following the attack on al-Jaouni school, saying the “horrific violence” in the Palestinian enclave “must stop”.
About 25 percent of people wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza – at least 22,500 Palestinians – have “life-changing” injuries, according to the World Health Organization.
At least 41,118 people have been killed and 95,125 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza. In Israel, the number of those killed in the Hamas-led attacks on October 7 is at least 1,139, while more than 200 people were taken captive.
