Palestinian authorities reported the deaths of more than 61,000 people in the Gaza Strip

More than 61 thousand people have become victims of Israeli actions in the Gaza Strip. This follows from the statement of the press service of the Palestinian government.

"The number of people killed in the Gaza Strip due to Israeli aggression reached 61,000, the occupation forces committed 9,268 massacres of families," the statement said. It is quoted by the TV channel Al Jazeera.

It was specified that the actions of the Jewish state also led to the displacement of 32 million Palestinians.

In addition, the TV channel reported that on that day the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) attacked a civilian car in the central part of the Gaza Strip, killing a child.

Vague alternatives: in Palestine, a plan for the reconstruction of Gaza has been drawn up

However, Israel is blocking attempts by the NPA authorities to return to the exclave

Russia's representative to the UN, Vasily Nebenzya , said that he considers the conflict in Gaza a reflection of the West's indifference to the protection of human rights. According to him, even if the Palestinian-Israeli conflict stops now, the risk of death and injury for the children of Gaza will continue for at least 14 more years. That is how long it will take to clear the territory of unexploded shells.

Israel notified the UN on January 25 that the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) must cease its work in Jerusalem by January 30 and vacate all the premises it occupies by that date. Then, on Jan. 30, two laws went into effect banning UNRWA's activities in some "sovereign territory of Israel," Russian diplomats said.

The ceasefire regime in the Gaza Strip began to take effect on the morning of January 19. At the same time, the Palestinian Hamas movement handed over three Israeli hostages - Romy Gonen, Emily Damari and Doron Steinbrecher - to representatives of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC). The next day, Israel released the first 90 Palestinian prisoners as part of the deal. The hostage exchange continues.

The situation in the Middle East escalated on the morning of October 7, 2023, when Hamas launched a massive rocket attack from the Gaza Strip into Israel. On the same day, Israel began retaliatory strikes.
