The Gaza Government Press Office has released a stark statement detailing the devastating impact of recent military actions in the region. According to the report, 24 individuals lost their lives, and 87 others sustained injuries during a series of bombings that occurred just yesterday. The statement strongly condemned what it described as systematic violations of the previously agreed-upon truce, warning that such actions could reignite a new wave of violent clashes. The Israeli Army was reported to have conducted 142 targeted attacks on civilians, residential homes, and tents housing displaced persons. Additionally, there were 228 ground and air bombings, 21 incursions, and over a hundred demolition operations carried out during this period. The Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS) also highlighted a concerning increase in the number of settlers in the West Bank, now exceeding 770,000, with 336,000 residing in the occupied area of East Jerusalem. Furthermore, it was reported that a total of 2,382 square kilometers of land has been confiscated, amounting to 42 percent of the West Bank’s territory.
