Palestinian death toll in Gaza tops 73,000, officials say, as Israel strikes despite ceasefire
The ministry said 173,200 people have been wounded since the war began after the Oct. 7, 2023 attack.
- Gaza Health Ministry officials Zaher al-Waheidi, head of the ministry's records department, and Hamza Salem from public relations confirmed on Sunday the Palestinian death toll from the Israel-Hamas war has reached 73,001.
- The conflict began with the Hamas-led October 7, 2023, attack into Israel, which killed approximately 1,200 people and took 251 hostages, leaving over 173,200 Palestinians wounded since the war's start.
- Medical professionals staff the Health Ministry, which maintains records viewed as generally reliable by United Nations agencies; women and children reportedly comprise around half of all fatalities.
- Israeli strikes killed two Palestinians in Khan Younis on Saturday, with five additional deaths reported on Sunday—two in Khan Younis, one in central Gaza, and two from earlier wounds—casualties taken to Nasser hospital.
- Despite the fragile October ceasefire, both sides accuse each other of violations while Hamas refuses to disarm and Israeli troops remain in Gaza, stalling key agreement elements and sustaining the conflict's lethality.
