Israel’s genocide in Gaza has killed at least 74,564 Palestinians and wounded 175,770 since October 2023, the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza said on Wednesday.

Hospitals received three people who died and 11 wounded people over the past 24 hours. Two of those who died succumbed to earlier wounds from Israeli attacks..

The ministry said Israeli attacks have killed 1,568 Palestinians and wounded 5,649 since the "ceasefire" began on 11 October 2025. Recovery teams have also retrieved 845 bodies during that period.

At least 8000 more Palestinians are missing and presumed dead under the rubble, according to Gaza's civil defence. Several thousand others have disappeared and remain unaccounted for, leaving families uncertain whether their relatives are alive or dead.
