The Palestinian Ministry of Health announced today, Wednesday, that the  Israeli ongoing aggression on the Gaza Strip left 219 martyrs and 1530 wounded people until today morning.

The wounded people sustain various degrees of injures.

The Israeli warplanes have continued hitting civilians in the Strip for the tenth day in a row.

The Palestinian Ministry explained that there are 63 children among martyrs, 36 women, and 16 elder people, according to WAFA, a Palestinian news agency.

On the other hand, the Central Legal for Protection Rights of the Arab Minority In Israel revealed that forces of occupation arrested 58 Arabs of the population who lives behind the Green Line.

However, Al-Quds Brigades, the military arm of Islamic Jihad, revealed today that they shelled Tel Aviv, the capital city of Israel, with barrages of missiles.

The brigades assured that they shelled a number of Israeli military sites in the east of the Strip, with mortar shells.

Days ago,  Channel 13 TV news in Israel revealed that a number of Israeli ministers urged Prime Minister  Benjamin Netanyahu to terminate operations in the Gaza Strip.

Netanyahu and his Minister of Defence  Beny Gantz are interested in continuing the aggression of the Palestinian people.

KANN, the Israeli Broadcasting network, pointed out that Netanyahu met with his ministers to assess the situation in the Strip and inside Israel on the backdrop of clashes erupted between the Arabs and Israelis.

But  Haaretz, an Israeli daily newspaper, revealed that the Israeli army waits for orders to terminate fighting in the Gaza Strip as fast as it is possible.

Israel’s government fears that confrontations between the Arabs and Jews in the mixed cities and towns may be out of control if the war prolongs.

According to the newspaper, the army has intensified its raids on the Strip ahead of the stopping of military operations.
