“The Israeli army conducted arrests and forcible disappearance of around 2,500 Palestinians from Gaza, as they are held in unknown locations.

“Around 50.000 pregnant women in need of health follow-up and other related health care services. The health care to nearly 10.000 cancer patients in Gaza is disrupted under the Israeli aggression and deliberate targeting of hospitals,” reiterated the Media Office.
