Expanding Humanitarian Aid Reach

The health ministry in Hamas-run Gaza said Thursday that at least 37,431 people have been killed in the territory during more than eight months of war between Israel and Palestinian militants.

 

The toll includes at least 35 deaths in the past 24 hours, a ministry statement said, adding 85,653 people had been wounded in the Gaza Strip since the war began when Hamas militants attacked Israel on October 7.

 

Over 24,000 of the dead have been fully identified by the Gaza Health Ministry; of these, 52% are women and minors, 40% are men, and 8% are elderly of both sexes. Some have speculated that the total death toll in Gaza might be higher than reported, with roughly 10,000 Gazans believed still buried under the rubble.
