Not more than 103 Palestinians had been killed and 142 injured in the past 24 hours as a result of Israel’s military campaign in the Gaza Strip.
The Hamas-run Health Ministry in the territory said on Tuesday.
This means that 29,195 people had been killed and 69,170 others injured since the war began four and a half months ago, according to the ministry.
While the figures cannot be independently verified, the United Nations and other observers consider them reliable.
According to UN estimates, the majority of those killed were women and children.
According to dpa, the Israeli army said earlier that dozens of fighters from the Islamist terrorist organisation Hamas had been killed during intensive operations in the city of Khan Younis in the south of the coastal strip over the past 24 hours.
The war was triggered by the worst massacre in Israel’s history, carried out by terrorists from Hamas and other extremist Palestinian organisations.
They murdered more than 1,200 people and kidnapped 250 others to the Gaza Strip.
