Two Palestinians have been martyred in latest Israeli strikes across the Gaza strip.

According to the Gaza Health sources, the martyrdom toll since the ceasefire on October 11 last year has risen to 1,283, while the number of injuries has reached over 4,248.

Meanwhile, United Nations agencies and peacekeepers have warned that war-devastated Gaza's 94 percent households are in need of shelter aid as Israeli gunfire and strikes continue inside the enclave.

According to UN agencies and partners, more than four out of five families currently face critical or catastrophic living conditions, which lack fuel, energy and essential household items.

According to the UN aid coordination office, nearly two-thirds of families live in tents or makeshift shelters that rapidly deteriorate in harsh weather, as they are designed only for short-term use.
