902 families wiped out in one year, one survivor in 1,364 Palestinian families: Gazan Media office
Gaza: The Government Media Office in Gaza issued a statement on Wednesday, accusing the Israeli military of committing acts of genocide, with the support of the United States and other Western nations, over the past year in the Gaza Strip. The statement claimed that the Israeli occupation forces had exterminated 902 Palestinian families, erasing them from the civil registry by killing all members of these families during the year-long conflict.
Additionally, the statement highlighted that 1,364 Palestinian families were left with only one surviving member, while 3,472 families had two surviving members. The total number of casualties in Gaza has reportedly exceeded 41,000, with nearly 20,000 people still missing, according to Palestinian officials.
The statement also extended condemnation to the United States and several European countries, including the United Kingdom, Germany, and France, accusing them of supplying Israel with banned weapons. It called upon the international community and United Nations organizations to intervene, pressuring Israel to halt its military actions in Gaza and to end the violence that has been ongoing for a full year.
The conflict, which began on October 7 last year following an attack by Hamas, has since expanded into Lebanon. Despite calls for an immediate ceasefire from the UN Security Council, Israel’s military operations in Gaza continue.
The Government Media Office in Gaza emphasized the need for global denouncement of what it described as systematic crimes against civilians, including women and children, urging action to stop the bloodshed.

Teen dies in car stunt accident in Kerala, driver held
Thrissur (Kerala) (PTI): A man was arrested on Monday after a 14-year-old boy was killed when a car overturned during a stunt-driving incident at Chamakala Rajiv Road beach in Chentrappinni here, police said.
The arrested accused was identified as Shajeer alias Saddam (36), a native of Kurikkuzhi in Kaipamangalam.
According to police, the incident occurred around 6 pm on Sunday when the accused allegedly performed dangerous drifting manoeuvres with an open-top Gypsy vehicle at the beach, without following any safety norms.
The accused picked up three minors — Mohammed Sinan (14), Mohammed Shafeer (14) and Ameer (12) — who were playing at the beach, and made them sit at the rear of the vehicle before driving recklessly.
While performing the drifting stunt, the vehicle went out of control and overturned, trapping Sinan underneath.
He suffered severe head injuries and succumbed to the impact, police said.
Based on a complaint, Kaipamangalam police registered a case under Section 105 (culpable homicide) of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita.
After completing the preliminary probe, police arrested Shajeer on Monday.
He was later produced before a court and remanded to judicial custody, police said.
The accused is involved in 11 criminal cases.
