GAZA, January 17, 2024 – The casualty figures in Gaza continue to rise to 24,285 people, while another 60,582 are reported injured.

The numbers include 10,440 children, 118 journalists, 337 healthcare workers, and 45 civil defense workers.

More than 7,000 people are missing, with 70 percent of them being children and women.

According to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), the airstrikes on Gaza for over 100 days have resulted in the largest displacement of Palestinians since 1948.

Meanwhile, Gaza media reports during this period, over 1,500 graves have been dug up and over 150 bodies have been stolen.

Islamic Relief has remained proactive in providing assistance since the attacks began on October 7 last year until now. This includes the distribution of food assistance, medicines, vegetables, water, hygiene kits, sponsorship for orphans, and psychosocial activities.
