At least eight Palestinians have been killed and 61 others injured in new Israeli attacks across the Gaza Strip in the past 24 hours, Al Jazeera reports, citing the enclave’s health ministry.

Two bodies have also been recovered from the rubble of the previous Israeli attacks in the same time frame, the ministry added.

Israel’s war on Gaza has killed a total of 67,183 Palestinians and injured 169,841 others since Oct 7, 2023, the statement said.
