'12,000 minors, 710 infants': Names released of over 34,000 victims of Israel's war on Gaza
List includes nearly 12,000 minors under 18 slain by Israeli attacks, as well as 710 infants under age one killed by Israeli forces
GAZA CITY, Palestine
Health authorities in the embattled Gaza Strip on Monday released the names of 34,344 Palestinians killed by the Israeli army in the course of its deadly onslaught against Gaza Strip, now approaching its grim first anniversary.
The list published by the Gaza Health Ministry in Gaza included the names of 11,983 minors under the age of 18 killed by the Israeli army.
The list also includes the names of 710 infants under a year old killed in Gaza by the Israeli army since last Oct. 7, as well as names of 2,734 Palestinians over 60 also killed by Israeli attacks.
Despite a UN Security Council resolution calling for an immediate cease-fire, Israel has continued its brutal offensive on the Gaza Strip following an attack by Palestinian group Hamas last Oct. 7.
More than 41,200 people, mostly women and children, have since been killed and over 95,400 injured, according to local health authorities.
The Israeli onslaught has displaced almost the entire population of the territory amid an ongoing blockade that has led to severe shortages of food, clean water, and medicine.
Israel also faces accusations of genocide for its actions in Gaza at the International Court of Justice.
