Reuters/CGTN. Palestinian fatalities in Gaza have reached 10,022 since the outbreak of the latest round of the Hamas-Israel conflict on Oct 7, Palestine's health ministry in Gaza said on Monday.
More than 1,400 people have died on the Israeli side due to the conflict, according to Israel's health ministry.
A spokesman for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said on Monday that over the past 24 hours, Israeli troops continued to intensify their ground operations in Gaza and captured multiple Hamas military facilities while killing a number of armed personnel including Hamas field commanders.
The IDF navy also attacked Hamas command posts. In addition, Israeli fighter jets launched strikes on a series of targets including tunnels, observation posts and anti-tank missile launch posts.
The Palestinian health ministry accused Israel of bombing a building of Gaza's largest medical facility -- Shifa Hospital on Monday. The attack destroyed the hospital's solar panels, and killed one person with many others injured, according to the ministry.
The building was reportedly sheltering 170 injured people and hundreds of evacuees. However, an IDF spokesman denied such statement and claimed that the Shifa Hospital has been used as a "terrorists hideout".
The Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, said on Monday that it has continued to engage in battles with the Israeli military in Gaza. Over the past 48 hours, it has destroyed 27 Israeli vehicles, including tanks and armored vehicles, and caused heavy casualties to Israeli troops.
In addition, according to reports from Israeli media, several rockets had been fired from Gaza into central Israel on Monday. No casualties were reported as all of the rockets fell into the sea.
