Israel’s continued attacks across the Gaza Strip have resulted in devastating human tragedy.

More than 31,000 people have lost their lives in Gaza, including over 12,300 children and 8,400 women. Another 72,298 have been injured, among them 8,663 children and 6,327 women.

Moreover, more than 8,000 individuals remain missing, adding to the anguish of families in the conflict-ridden region, according to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Human Affairs.

At Least 424 Killed, 4,600 Injured in the West Bank

The latest figures from the Palestinian Ministry of Health in the occupied West Bank reveal further casualties: at least 424 people have been killed, including over 113 children, with more than 4,600 injured.

In Israel, the revised death toll stands at 1,139, down from 1,405, alongside at least 8,730 injuries, according to the Israeli army.

Half of the Homes in Gaza Destroyed or Damaged

The destruction in Gaza is staggering, with over half of its homes — 360,000 residential units — destroyed or damaged, alongside 392 educational facilities and 132 groundwater wells.

Additionally, 12 out of 35 hospitals are only partially functional, further exacerbating the humanitarian crisis.
