Gaza’s Hamas-controlled health authorities says Israel’s bombing campaign and fighting on the ground have killed at least 21,110 people in the Strip, though the figures cannot be verified.
Hamas has been accused of inflating casualty figures and including those killed by misfired Palestinian rockets.
Hamas does not differentiate between civilians and combatants. The IDF says it has killed some 8,000 Hamas operatives in Gaza and another 1,000 terrorists during and immediately after the October 7 attacks.
Israel launched its war against Hamas after the terror group led an unprecedented assault into southern Israel on October 7. Terrorists massacred some 1,200 people in Israel, most of them civilians. Another approximately 240 people were kidnapped.
