100 days of onslaught on Gaza

The civilian infrastructure in Gaza has suffered extensive damage as a result of the Israeli regime’s relentless bombing and shelling campaign, which has entered its 100th day. The latest figures indicate that nearly 100 schools and universities were completely destroyed and around 300 partially damaged. Holy sites were also among the main targets of the Israeli military as more than 140 mosques as well as three churches were completely destroyed, and over 243 mosques partially damaged. More than 80 hospitals and health centers are now out of service as a result of the Israeli attacks. More than 120 ambulances have been destroyed as well.

US-Israeli genocide in Gaza

A European NGO says at least 100,000 Palestinians have been killed, wounded or reported missing in Israel’s recurring air and artillery strikes on Gaza. According to Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor, over 90 percent of those killed are civilians, mostly women and children. Hundreds of health personnel are among the victims as well. The NGO said the Israeli attacks have caused long-term disabilities in some injured Palestinians. It added that hundreds of people have sustained critical injuries.

Israel West Bank raids

Israeli forces have killed five more Palestinians during fresh raids on the occupied West Bank. Among the dead is a 14-year-old boy who was shot in the chest at a refugee camp near the city of Ariha, also known as Jericho. Two other Palestinian teenagers lost their lives in an area near Ramallah. Israeli forces opened fire at them at the northern entrance to the city of al-Bireh. The other killings took place near the city of al-Khalil, also known as Hebron, where the regime’s forces fatally shot two Palestinian youths. Israel has intensified its deadly raids across the West Bank since the beginning of its genocidal war on Gaza. Over the past 100 days, more than 340 Palestinians have been killed in the occupied territories. In the same period, the regime has also abducted hundreds of Palestinians there.
