At least 710 people were reported dead and over 900 injured in Israel’s attacks on Gaza on March 18. The Ministry of Health in Gaza announced that the number of casualties had risen by 240 to at least 710 since Israel’s attacks on the Gaza Strip began on Tuesday, March 18.

Dakran emphasized that many of the casualties from Israel’s attacks had lost their lives due to the lack of basic medical supplies and medication caused by the blockade. The Palestinian official also mentioned that 70% of the injured were children and women, with most of them in critical condition. Breaking the ceasefire that came into effect on January 19, the Israeli army launched intense attacks on the Gaza Strip on March 18.
