At least 100 Palestinian children have been killed or injured each day in Gaza since Israel broke the ceasefire on March 18, the head of UNRWA said.

Medical director says al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza City has no space left to treat casualties as the latest Israeli attacks kill at least 38 Palestinians since dawn on Friday.

At least 1,249 people have been killed in Gaza since Israel resumed large-scale strikes on the enclave after breaking a ceasefire on March 18. The number of injured since the Israeli attacks restarted now stands at 3,022, Gaza’s Health Ministry also said.

According to the ministry, the figures include 86 people killed in the past 24 hours and 287 wounded.

The ministry also reports that the overall death toll in Gaza has reached 50,609 since the war began on October 7, 2023.

The number of people injured in Gaza since that date stands at 115,063.
