Gaza's death toll passes 50,000: Health ministry

The death toll in Gaza reached a grim milestone on Sunday after the health ministry confirmed that Israeli forces had killed more than 50,000 Palestinians since October 2023.

Earlier on Sunday, the health ministry recorded 41 confirmed deaths over the last 24 hours, with 61 injured from Israeli attacks. 

The ministry added that since fighting began in the Gaza Strip, approximately 113,274 Palestinians have been wounded. 

Many fatalities, according to the ministry, are still unaccounted for due to rescuers being unable to free them from under the rubble.
