At least 17,700 Palestinians have been killed and 48,780 wounded in Israeli attacks in Gaza since October 7, Gaza\u2019s Health Ministry said on Saturday. Ashraf Al-Qidra, spokesman for the Hamas-run ministry, said that in recent hours two paramedics were wounded when Israeli forces targeted an ambulance while it was working to evacuate wounded patients from Gaza\u2019s European Hospital. He denounced what he called Israel\u2019s war against hospitals, ambulances and medical teams. Israel says Hamas operates from within hospitals and has released footage supporting the claim, and it has also targeted the past ambulances it says were used by Hamas. Hamas has denied this. Israeli forces unleashed an aerial and ground blitz against Hamas in Gaza after a cross-border rampage by the enclave\u2019s ruling militant Islamist group on October 7.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
