It noted that hospitals also received 12 injured in the past 24 hours.

The statement added that a number of victims remain under rubble and on roads, with ambulance and civil defense crews unable to reach them.

The agreement was reached to stop the genocide that Israel has been committing in the Gaza Strip since October 8, 2023, which, in addition to casualties, has caused widespread destruction affecting nearly 90 percent of civilian infrastructure.
