United Nations | On Wednesday, clashes in Gaza, the West Bank and Israel killed 256 people, including 69 children and an Israeli soldier, according to the United Nations. Thousands of people were injured there. According to the news agency Xinhua, the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said that 219 Palestinians, including 63 children, were killed in Gaza. 25 Palestinian people, including four children, died in the West Bank. At the same time, Israeli sources said that 12 people have died, including two children and a soldier. Thousands of people have been injured.

The conflict has demolished six hospitals and nine primary health centers in Gaza. Damage from a nearby airstrike halted the Covid 19 test at the Gaza Central Laboratory, with UN officials stating that an NGO hospital has stopped functioning due to fuel shortages.

The OCHA said that due to the feeder line malfunction, electricity in Gaza is only three to four hours a day on average.

The World Food Program reported giving electronic vouchers to 74,000 people in Gaza by Monday.
