The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced that the number of Palestinians killed in the Israeli assault on the Gaza Strip, which began on October 7, 2023, has now reached 54,084 martyrs, with an additional 123,308 wounded.
In the past 24 hours alone, 28 people were killed and 179 injured, according to the ministry. However, these figures do not include casualties from the northern governorates of Gaza, where access remains impossible due to ongoing hostilities.
Do you demand from any NGO, any government, from the UNRWA director Philippe Lazzarini, from the United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres to stop their unbearable whining and finally kick this fascist gang of Benyamin Netanyahu out of the United Nations?
Do you?
If not – GET OUT OF THE WAY!
Best,
Daniel
The death toll from the ongoing Israeli military campaign on the Gaza Strip has risen to 54,056, with 123,129 others wounded since October 7, 2023, according to medical sources.
They that 3,901 Palestinians have been killed and 11,088 wounded since March 18, when Israeli forces resumed their offensive following the collapse of a temporary ceasefire agreement.

Internal documents seen by The Washington Post show that biometric technology will be deployed at the hubs, handing the Israeli military power to choose who is allowed to receive aid.
There are plans to construct guarded „humanitarian transition areas“, where tens of thousands of Palestinians will be held. Planners anticipate these zones to be described as „concentration camps“ by the public, the documents show.
Five people involved in the planning expressed concern about the militarisation of aid, and the use of mercenary forces and biometrics to police civilians.
The scheme has triggered outcry among some of Israel‘s closest Western allies and humanitarian organisations, who have refused to cooperate with a plan that they say violates basic humanitarian principles.
The UN has warned that the policy has been designed to facilitate the mass displacement of Palestinians, an accusation effectively confirmed by Israeli ministers who have publicly articulated plans to drive the entire population to the south and force them out of Gaza.

Connecting all these dots leads to a fairly clear conclusion: Israel is preparing to forcibly displace the entire population of Gaza — through a combination of evacuation orders and intense bombardment — into an enclosed and possibly fenced-off area. Anyone caught outside its boundaries would be killed, and buildings throughout the rest of the enclave would likely be razed to the ground.
Without mincing words, this “humanitarian zone,” as Magal so kindly put it, in which the army intends to corral Gaza’s 2 million residents, can be summed up in just two words: concentration camp. This is not hyperbole; it is simply the most precise definition to help us better understand what we are facing.
The UN agency for Palestinian refugees, UNRWA, meanwhile, explained that “no supplies whatsoever” prepared by the agency have reached Gaza since the Israeli siege began on 2 March.
Thousands of Palestinians stormed on Tuesday into sites where aid was being distributed by a foundation backed by the U.S. and Israel, with desperation for food overcoming concern about biometric and other checks Israel said it would employ.
By late afternoon on Tuesday, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation said it had distributed about 8,000 food boxes, equivalent to about 462,000 meals, after an almost three-month-old Israeli blockade of the war-devastated enclave.
Chaotic scenes unfolded in Rafah, southern Gaza, as Palestinians rushed a US aid distribution site in Tal as-Sultan, prompting American security personnel to fire warning shots.
The Gaza health ministry said on Tuesday that at least 79 people were killed and another 163 wounded over the past 24 hours.
The death toll in Gaza now stands at 54,056 people killed since the start of the war, with thousands remaining missing.

At least 81 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli strikes across the Gaza Strip since dawn on Monday, the Gaza health ministry reported.
Israel has pounded the enclave as famine sets in among Palestinians.
“No business as usual with Israel”, demonstrations by Israeli citizens across Europe will be held tomorrow, Tuesday 27, in 12 major cities to demand: “Suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement! Stop Arming Israel!”
According to the initiative, “As Israeli citizens living in Europe, we are watching with broken hearts and endless rage as the Israeli army is exacting unprecedented destruction on the Gaza Strip and its people, as the Israeli society is deteriorating into fascism and widespread dehumanization, and as our government is committing a genocide aimed at the destruction of Palestinian collectivity.”

In addition, from June 12 to 14, 2025, Paris will host an exceptional gathering, held under the patronage and in the presence of the French President Emmanuel Macron. The initiative was started by The Alliance for Two States headed by Palestinian Samer Sinijlawi and Israeli Gershon Baskin.
“We‘re here to say we refuse the bombing of civilians, we refuse starvation, we refuse war crimes, we refuse the genocide and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians.”
Israeli anti-war activists clashed with police during a demonstration against the war on Gaza in Tel Aviv on Sunday.
One demonstrator says they refuse to remain silent while Israelis continue to commit “such hideous crimes against humanity” in a “growing fascist regime”.

At least 53,939 Palestinians have been killed in Israel’s genocidal war since October 2023, Anadolu Ajansı reported quoting the Health Ministry on Sunday (May 25).
Bushra Rajab recalled waking up “to the sound of people screaming and panicking” after what sounded “like a big explosion”.
“Many people were killed and many were injured. Some of those killed were my relatives,” she said. “There were too many injured people for ambulances to reach. The remains of bodies were all over the place.”
In an 11-second clip shared on the messaging site Telegram, a young girl can be seen trying to make her way out of a burning classroom following a deadly Israeli strike on the Fahmi Al-Jargawi girls‘ school.
Health officials told reporters they had recovered the severely burned bodies of 31 people, including children, after the late-night strike.
It was unclear whether the child who featured in the video survived the attack.
Israeli strikes killed at least 52 people in the Gaza Strip on Monday, including 36 in a school-turned-shelter that was struck as people slept, setting their belongings ablaze, according to local health officials. The military said it targeted militants operating from the school.
The New York Times found that the broad contours of the plan were first discussed in late 2023, at private meetings of like-minded officials, military officers and business people with close ties to the Israeli government.
The group called itself the Mikveh Yisrael Forum, after a college where members convened in December 2023. Its leading figures gradually settled on the idea of hiring private contractors to distribute food in Gaza, circumventing the United Nations.
The planning documents anticipated public skepticism and preemptively prepared talking points in case the GHF encountered allegations likening its food distribution hubs and residential compounds to “‘concentration camps’ with biometrics” or comparing the organization to Blackwater, a former U.S. mercenary firm implicated in violence against civilians in Iraq.

In mid-2024, Israeli officials shared their plans with a group of private-sector American consultants led by Phil Reilly, a retired CIA paramilitary officer and former agency station chief in Afghanistan. Reilly’s group, said five of the Israeli and American individuals, took over the planning and determined that a new company led by Reilly, named Safe Reach Solutions, would be the future subcontractor that would provide security and logistics for the hubs.
Nearly 80 people have been killed in the latest round of Israeli airstrikes, including nine of a Gaza pediatrician’s ten children, according to local health officials. The strikes hit Khan Younis in southern Gaza, leaving the doctor’s husband wounded and only one child critically injured.
Nine of a doctor‘s 10 children have been killed in an Israeli missile strike on their home in Gaza, which also left her surviving son badly injured and her husband in a critical condition.
Alaa Al Najjar, a paediatrician at Al Tahrir Clinic in the Nasser Medical Complex, was at work during the attack on her home, south of the city of Khan Younis in southern Gaza, on Friday.
Yahya, 12, Eve, 9, Rival, 5, Sadeen, 3, Rakan, 10, Ruslan, 7, Jibran, 8, Luqman, 2, and Sedar, not yet 1 year old, died in the strike on Najjar’s home, according to hospital officials.
Video provided by Gaza‘s Civil Defense showed a tiny charred body zipped up inside a bag. Sedar’s remains were never found.
“We couldn’t find any trace of him,” a Civil Defense worker said.
One of Najjar’s children and her husband, also a physician, survived with injuries. Dr. Graeme Groom, a British surgeon working in the hospital, told the BBC on Saturday that he had operated on 11-year-old Adam.
Deutschland findet sich immer mehr in einer Minderheitenposition in der EU wieder. Diese Woche am 20. Mai stimmte Berlin gegen die überwiegende Mehrheit der EU-Länder, die einem niederländischen Vorschlag gefolgt waren, eine Prüfung einzuleiten, ob Israel mit dem Vorgehen in Gaza gegen seine Menschenrechtsverpflichtungen gemäß Artikel 2 des Assoziierungsabkommens zwischen der EU und Israel verstoßen hat. Die NachDenkSeiten wollten wissen, mit welcher Begründung sich Deutschland gegen eine solche Überprüfung ausgesprochen hat.
Several hundreds of Israeli protestors gathered near the border with Gaza on Friday, May 23, calling for an end to the deadly war and ethnic cleansing. “Only people can stop the criminal madness of the far-right government. We need to do everything to stop the massacre and the Trump’s imperialist eviction plan to expel Palestinians from their lands,” said Hadash MK Ofer Cassif to journalists.
Protesters chanted for peace and justice for both Israelis and Palestinians and held banners in Hebrew, Arabic and English, reading “Palestinian Lives Matter,” “No in My Name,” “End the War for All Our Sakes,” and “Refuse.” They held, also, pictures of murdered Gaza children.

Israelis assembled near the border with the Gaza Strip on Friday to demand peace and justice for both Israelis and Palestinians. The Israeli government has pushed ahead with a renewed offensive in the destroyed territory despite mounting criticism at home and abroad.
Dr Alaa al-Najjar, a paediatric specialist at al-Tahrir hospital within the Nasser Medical Complex, was treating victims of ongoing Israeli attacks across the strip on Friday when she was shocked to find her own children and husband brought into the hospital.
The children – the eldest aged 12 and the youngest just six months – were severely burned in the bombing.
Shortly before the strike, Najjar had left for work with her husband, Hamdi al-Najjar, who then returned home.
Not long after, an Israeli bombardment struck their house in the Qizan al-Najjar area in southern Khan Younis, killing nine of their 10 children and wounding the 10th.
At least five Palestinians killed, 50 wounded by an Israeli attack that targeted people gathering around a truck carrying flour in southern Gaza.
Witnesses to Israel’s bombing of a family home in Gaza’s Jabalia refugee camp that left some 50 people dead or missing told Al Jazeera that “the Israeli military is killing civilians for fun”.
The director of medical relief in Gaza says only 92 aid trucks have entered the Strip in three days.
He added that the healthcare, water, and food situation in Gaza is very difficult, and no food or medical aid has reached northern Gaza.
(May 23, 2025)
In Gaza city’s Al Jalaa neighbourhood, Mohammed Al Mahlawi, a father of five, described the growing desperation.
“We keep hearing that bakeries are operating in the south and flour is being distributed. But here in the north, we see none of it. There is no bread, no aid and no indication that the crisis is nearing an end,” he told The National.
“The world is watching us starve – men, women, and children – and does nothing.
The number of Palestinians killed by Israeli forces in Gaza since October 2023 has risen to 53,901, the Palestinian health ministry said on Saturday.
At least 122,593 have been wounded since the war began, it added.
Israeli attacks on various areas of the Gaza Strip have killed at least 21 Palestinians, according to local media reports.
“I am joining The Democrats today because it is a party with a backbone and public courage. The party that is leading the most determined struggle against the government and offers a path and real hope for Israel,” Sheffer said in a video announcement.
“Yesterday I heard the prime minister — a corrupt, failed man, who brought upon Israel the worst disaster in its history — declare that he does not accept the High Court of Justice ruling,” he said, referring to the decision that found Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s firing of Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar to have been “unlawful” and that barred the premier from involvement in selecting Bar’s successor.
Finally, a trickle of aid has crossed over.
In recent days, almost 400 trucks were cleared for entry to Gaza through the Kerem Shalom crossing.
But supplies from only 115 trucks have been able to be collected.
And nothing has reached the besieged north.
We are working around the clock to get whatever aid we can to people in need.
And we managed to distribute some wheat flour, baby food, nutrition supplements and medicines.
At long last, a few bakeries in south and central Gaza are operating.
But let us not forget that we are operating in the middle of a military operation.
In any case, all the aid authorized until now amounts to a teaspoon of aid when a flood of assistance is required.
Long-awaited food supplies have been looted in Gaza overnight while being transported to desperate communities in the war-torn enclave, UN aid teams reported on Friday.
Fifteen World Food Programme (WFP) trucks were looted late last night in southern Gaza, while the trucks were en route to WFP-supported bakeries. These trucks were transporting critical food supplies for populations waiting anxiously for assistance.
(…)
As WFP has said previously, 2 million people are facing extreme hunger and famine without immediate action.
„These trucks were transporting critical food supplies for hungry populations waiting anxiously for assistance. Hunger, desperation, and anxiety over whether more food aid is coming, is contributing to rising insecurity,“ the WFP said in a statement.
„Hunger, desperation, and anxiety over whether more food aid is coming, is contributing to rising insecurity,“ the WFP continued.
A ministry statement said that 60 bodies were brought to hospitals in the last 24 hours, while 185 people were injured, taking the number of injuries to 122,382 in the Israeli onslaught.
“Many victims are still trapped under the rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them,” it added.
At least 66 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli air attacks across the Gaza Strip since dawn today, Gaza’s Health Ministry reports.
