The bodies of 54 Palestinians and many injured individuals arrived on Friday at the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in the Gaza Strip.
A spokesperson for the hospital told Anadolu that 54 Palestinians were killed, while dozens of others were injured in Israeli attacks targeting areas in the central Gaza Strip.
The casualties were brought to the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip, he added.
Israel has continued its brutal offensive on Gaza since a Hamas attack last Oct. 7 despite a UN Security Council resolution demanding an immediate cease-fire.
Some 36,600 Palestinians have since been killed in Gaza, most of them women and children, and over 83,000 others injured, according to local health authorities.
Eight months into the Israeli war, vast tracts of Gaza lay in ruins amid a crippling blockade of food, clean water, and medicine.
Israel stands accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice, whose latest ruling ordered Tel Aviv to immediately halt its operation in the southern city of Rafah, where over a million Palestinians had sought refuge from the war before it was invaded on May 6.
