The health ministry in Hamas-governed Gaza reported on Saturday that at least 44,664 individuals have lost their lives during nearly 14 months of ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestinian militants.
According to the ministry, the toll includes 52 deaths recorded in the past 24 hours. Additionally, 105,976 people have been reported wounded in the Gaza Strip since the war began on October 7, 2023, when Hamas militants launched a large-scale attack on Israel.
The war has resulted in widespread devastation and an escalating humanitarian crisis, with both sides suffering significant casualties. International calls for a ceasefire and humanitarian aid to the region have intensified as the conflict shows little sign of resolution.
The figures, provided by Gaza’s health ministry, are a stark reminder of the ongoing human cost of the conflict, which continues to draw global attention.
