Death toll of Palestinians in Gaza due to Israeli war rises to 52,418
CAIRO – 1 May 2025: The Israeli genocidal war against the Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip has killed 52,418 martyrs and injured 118,091 others since October 7, 2023, said the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza in a daily news briefing on Thursday.
A total of 18 martyrs (including one recovered martyr) and 77 injuries were received in Gaza Strip hospitals over the past 24 hours, the report added.
Meanwhile, a number of victims remain under the rubble and on the roads, unable to be reached by ambulances and civil defense teams.
The death toll and injuries since March 18, 2025 has reached 2,326 martyrs and 6,050 injuries. On March 18, Israel shattered a two-month ceasefire in Gaza brokered by Egypt, Qatar, and the US, resuming one of the century's bloodiest conflicts.
The Palestinian Center for Human Rights said on Thursday that the Israeli war destroyed approximately 90 percent of the Gaza Strip's housing and infrastructure, as well as industrial, commercial, agricultural, and service facilities.
Also, the UNRWA announced on Thursday that about 660,000 children in the Gaza Strip are not receiving any schooling due to the war. Temporary education activities in the Gaza Strip have been severely affected by the resumption of Israeli shelling, the UN agency added.
Recent Israeli displacement orders in the Gaza Strip have made it more difficult for children to access psychosocial and recreational support, the UNRWA stated.

The Key to Keeping Your Family Healthy and Your Food Fresh
Pasant Elzaitony Your fridge is more than just a cold cabinet—it's the first line of defense for food safety and flavor. In today's fast-paced lifestyle, organizing and cleaning it smartly is a necessity, not a luxury. 1. The Golden Rule: A Place for Everything Bottom Shelf : Reserve this for raw meat and fish, storing them in airtight containers to prevent liquid leaks and cross-contamination. Middle Shelf: For milk, juices, eggs, and dairy products. Top Shelf: For ready-to-eat items like cheese, yogurt, and cooked meats. 2. Drawers… The Freshness Guardians Store fruits and vegetables in the designated crisper drawers, adjusting humidity levels to keep them fresh for longer. 3. The Door… For Heat-Resistant Items Use the fridge door for sauces, sodas, and juices. Avoid placing highly perishable foods like milk and eggs here, as the temperature is slightly warmer. 4. Don't Overcrowd… Let the Air Flow Leave space between items to allow cold air to circulate evenly throughout the fridge. 5. Vinegar… Your Natural Sanitizer Wipe down shelves and drawers weekly with a water-and-vinegar solution. It's a natural disinfectant that eliminates odors and kills bacteria. In Short: A well-organized and regularly cleaned fridge means healthier meals, less waste, and more time saved in the kitchen. read more 15 Ludicrous Cosplay Costumes That Will Blow You Away Watch...

Six aid seekers among 10 Palestinians killed by Israeli troops in Gaza Saturday - War on Gaza
Gaza's civil defence agency said at least 10 people were killed across the Palestinian territory on Saturday, including civilians who were waiting to collect aid. Civil defence spokesman Mahmoud Bassal told AFP that at least six people were killed and 30 wounded after Israeli troops targeted civilians assembling near an aid point in central Gaza. Israeli strikes also hit areas in central Gaza, resulting in multiple casualties. Thousands of Gazans congregate daily near food distribution points in Gaza, including four managed by the US- and Israeli-backed so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation. Since launching in late May, its operations have been marred by almost-daily reports of Israeli forces killing those waiting to collect food and aid supplies. Israeli restrictions on the entry of supplies into Gaza since the start of the genocidal war nearly two years ago have led to shortages of food and essential supplies, including medicine and fuel, which hospitals require to power their generators. An Israeli blockade imposed since 2 March has further worsened conditions in the war-torn Strip, prompting warnings of widespread famine. Early Friday, Israel's security cabinet approved plans to take control of Gaza City, sparking a wave of international outrage. Despite the backlash and rumours of dissent from Israeli military top brass, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu remained defiant over the decision. In a post on social media late Friday, Netanyahu said, "We are not going to occupy Gaza -- we are going to free Gaza from Hamas". Netanyahu faces increasing domestic pressure to secure a ceasefire in Gaza to facilitate the release of captives held by Palestinian militants, while internationally, criticism grows as more than two million Palestinians endure famine under Israel's five-month blockade of the Strip. Hamas slammed the Israeli plan to occupy Gaza City, calling it a "new war crime". Israel's 22-month war on Gaza has killed more than 61,300 Palestinians -- mostly women and children -- and wounded over 152,000, according to Gaza's Health Ministry. Independent estimates suggest the actual death toll may be significantly higher. * This story was edited by Ahram Online Follow us on: Facebook Instagram Whatsapp Short link:

Israeli soldiers with mental illnesses protest outside the Ministry of Defense in Tel Aviv
Amir haggag The Israeli Broadcasting Authority reported that dozens of Israeli soldiers with mental illnesses due to the Gaza war are protesting outside the Ministry of Defense to demand equality and treatment. The Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth reported, citing the Ministry of Defense's Rehabilitation Department, that approximately 80,000 wounded soldiers are currently being treated. It added that 26,000 wounded soldiers suffer from mental disorders. The Ministry of Defense's Rehabilitation Department also explained that the number of wounded soldiers and the prevalence of suicide are a major challenge. The Israeli Broadcasting Authority reported, citing Israeli military investigations, that 16 soldiers have committed suicide since the beginning of the year due to combat conditions related to the war in Gaza. According to the Israeli military investigations, the results of which were published Sunday morning, the suicides are attributed to the difficult scenes the soldiers experienced, the loss of friends, and the inability to cope with the events. The Israeli occupation army conducts investigations into every suicide case, including examining messages left by soldiers and their conversations with their immediate surroundings. A senior military official told the Israeli Broadcasting Authority that "most cases of suicide among IDF soldiers are due to the complex circumstances that followed the war. War has consequences, these are difficult challenges, and there are many cases." He pointed out that the number of mental health officers for regular soldiers has increased by 200, and the number of mental health officers in the reserves has increased by 600. read more Gold prices rise, 21 Karat at EGP 3685 NATO's Role in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict US Expresses 'Strong Opposition' to New Turkish Military Operation in Syria Shoukry Meets Director-General of FAO Lavrov: confrontation bet. nuclear powers must be avoided News Iran Summons French Ambassador over Foreign Minister Remarks News Aboul Gheit Condemns Israeli Escalation in West Bank News Greek PM: Athens Plays Key Role in Improving Energy Security in Region News One Person Injured in Explosion at Ukrainian Embassy in Madrid News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Arts & Culture Lebanese Media: Fayrouz Collapses after Death of Ziad Rahbani Sports Get to Know 2025 WWE Evolution Results
