Gaza Death Toll Hits Staggering 72,329 as Two More Deaths Reported

(MENAFN) Two more Palestinian casualties reached hospitals across the Gaza Strip in the past 24 hours, Gaza's Health Ministry announced Sunday, pushing the overall death toll from Israel's military campaign — launched in October 2023 — to 72,329 killed and 172,192 wounded.

A ministry statement clarified that the two newly recorded casualties comprised one freshly confirmed death and one body retrieved from beneath the rubble, with no additional details provided on the circumstances surrounding either case.

Despite a ceasefire that took effect on October 10, 2025, Israeli military forces have continued to carry out shelling and gunfire across Gaza, resulting in an unrelenting stream of casualties since the truce was declared. Gaza's Health Ministry reports that at least 750 people have been killed and 2,090 others wounded since the ceasefire came into force, with an additional 760 bodies recovered from the debris.

The truce was brokered following two unrelenting years of war that erupted on October 8, 2023, leaving a trail of devastation that has touched virtually every corner of civilian life in the enclave. Roughly 90% of civilian infrastructure has been affected, with the UN estimating that reconstruction costs will reach approximately $70 billion — a figure that lays bare the staggering scale of rebuilding that lies ahead.
