Gaza death toll tops 54,300 as Israeli attacks continue

The health ministry in Gaza says Israel’s war has killed at least 54,321 Palestinians since it began in October 2023.

  • A total of 123,770 people have been wounded, according to the ministry’s latest update.

  • In the past 24 hours alone, 72 deaths and 278 injuries were recorded - figures that do not include northern Gaza, where hospitals are barely functioning.

  • Since Israel ended the truce on 18 March, at least 4,058 people have been killed and another 11,729 wounded.

“A number of victims remain under the rubble and on the roads, unable to be reached by ambulance and civil defence crews,” the ministry said.
