Medical sources in Gaza have reported that the death toll from the ongoing conflict has surpassed 73,000 since October 2023, according to data verified by international health organizations. The figure includes both combatants and civilians, with women and children comprising a significant portion of the casualties.
The conflict, which began on October 7, 2023, following a Hamas-led attack on Israel, has led to widespread destruction across the Gaza Strip. The United Nations and other humanitarian agencies have repeatedly called for a ceasefire to allow for the delivery of aid and medical supplies.
As of June 15, 2026, the number of injured is estimated to be over 100,000, with many hospitals damaged or destroyed. The World Health Organization has warned of a public health crisis due to lack of clean water, food, and medical care.
