26,422 Palestinians martyred in Israeli bombing since Oct 7

Israeli atack on Gaza
The health ministry in Gaza said at least 26,422 people have been martyred in the Palestinian territory since October 7.

A ministry statement said at least 165 people were martyred over the previous 24 hours, while another 65,087 have been wounded since the conflict began.

The Palestinian Red Crescent Society says oxygen supplies have run out at the besieged Al-Amal Hospital in Khan Younis.

Israeli tanks and troops closed in on several hospitals last week with Israel saying the southern city is now the main Hamas headquarters. Fighting around hospitals has made the provision of medical care nearly impossible and halted most ambulance services, cutting the wounded off from medical care.

Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, just like all the hospitals in southern Gaza, is also under intense attack as it shelters thousands of terrified civilians.

The largest hospital in besieged Khan Younis city remains crippled and faces collapse as Israel’s offensive continues nearby.

Gaza’s Health Ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra said in a statement that Nasser Hospital lacked anaesthesia and other medicine for intensive care units, and had “dangerous” shortages of blood.

“These are the only painkillers left we have. If you want to count them, they are only for maybe five or four patients,” Dr Muhammad Harara said.

The Palestinian Foreign Ministry has denounced what it called a double standard after eight countries, including the US, suspended their funding for UNRWA.

“Suspending UNRWA funding for and continuing support for Israel in the genocide of our people are collective punishments and miserable double standards,” it said in a statement.

Palestinian officials have warned that cutting off funding to the UN’s agency for Palestinian refugees amid an intensifying humanitarian crisis in the besieged Gaza Strip could have devastating consequences.

The COAS was also given a briefing on events of May 9 dubbed by the military as ‘Black Day’ — the day when Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) supporters ransacked and torched military installations across the country following the arrest of their leader Imran Khan in a graft case. Addressing the garrison officers and soldiers at Corps Headquarters, Gen Munir emphasised that any action aimed at widening a gulf between people and the milita...
