Gaza Strip death toll reaches 73,651 amid ongoing destruction

The Palestinian death toll in the Gaza Strip has reached 73,651, with 174,575 people injured since the conflict began on October 7, 2023. Despite a ceasefire agreement established on October 11, 2025, violence has persisted, resulting in 1,344 deaths and 4,464 injuries during the truce period.

Rescue teams continue to recover bodies from the rubble of destroyed buildings, particularly in the Zeitoun neighborhood of Gaza City. Recent recovery efforts included the burial of 100 victims, including 73 children and 106 women. Officials estimate that approximately 10,000 bodies may still lie beneath the debris, while between 4,000 and 5,000 people remain missing and are feared dead.

Infrastructure damage is extensive, with approximately 90% of Gaza's infrastructure destroyed. The estimated cost for reconstruction is $70 billion. Meanwhile, foreign ministers from eight Arab and Islamic nations, including Jordan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia, have condemned Israeli statements regarding the forced displacement of Palestinians, calling such rhetoric a violation of international law.
