According to Israeli military, internet and other communication services in Gaza Strip have been knocked out, thus cutting off its around 2.4 million populace from rest of the world.

According to Hamas-led health ministry at least 7300 Palestinians have been killed in the retaliatory airstrikes carried out by Israeli Defence Forces in Gaza since October 7.
