Gaza health authorities say Israel’s military has "erased” over 1,400 Palestinian families in the besieged territory over the past year.
The Health Ministry said in a statement on Tuesday that the Israeli regime "completely erased about 1,410 families, numbering 5,444 people, from the civil registry during the same period.”
It said that there were 3,463 families with only one survivor, while 2,287 families had more than one survivor.
In northern Gaza, Israel’s warplanes have continued dropping bombs over Palestinian families, Palestinian news agency Wafa reported.
It said one airstrike hit a family home in Jabalia, causing numerous casualties on Tuesday.
According to Gaza's civil defense agency, at least seven people were killed and several others wounded in the attack.
Another person was killed in a strike on a house in nearby Beit Lahia, a town in northern Gaza, which has been declared “a disaster area" by the municipality due to "the Israeli war of extermination and siege, and it has no food, water, hospitals, doctors, services, or communications."
The health ministry said, “Israeli forces killed 14 people and injured 108 others in three massacres of families in the last 24 hours.”
“Many people are still trapped under the rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them.”
International organizations and leaders believe that Israel’s genocidal war, now in its second year, is a deliberate attempt to destroy the population of Gaza.
