The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry says 23,843 Palestinians have been killed and 60,317 have been wounded in the enclave since October 7.

These figures cannot be independently verified, and are believed to include both civilians and Hamas members killed in Gaza, including as a consequence of terror groups’ own rocket misfires. The IDF says it has killed over 8,500 operatives in Gaza, in addition to some 1,000 terrorists inside Israel on October 7.
