According to a statement issued by the Gaza Health Ministry, the death toll in Gaza in Gaza in the warm Israel-Hamas War for 20 months has now crossed 55,000. This disappointing figure is a serious milestone in the furious struggle on 7 October 2023, when Hamas made a stunning attack on Southern Israel. Remandable, the war gives very little indication of ending, as the devastation is increasing. The Ministry of Health, which is part of the administration run by Hamas of Gaza, but operated by independent medical professionals, reported that 55,104 people have been killed and at least 127,394 have been injured since the fight started. Officials are afraid that many more victims are buried under the rubble or in areas that are very dangerous or inaccessible for physicians to reach.

Although the ministry said that it does not distinguish between fighters and citizens in its figures, it has said that there are more than half of women and children in the reported deaths. Although these data are regularly questioned by the Israeli authorities on these data, in previous conflicts they generally match the data verified by independent monitoring and human agencies. Israel says that its military campaign is completely against Hamas terrorists and blames the terrorist group for the death of citizens. Israeli officials have accused Hamas of using densely populated urban areas as an operational base, causing citizens to directly threatening.

After ending the ceasefire with Hamas, the 2.5 -month blockade by Israel increased the possibility of famine and it was slightly relaxed in May. The introduction of a new Israeli and American -backed aid system has been affected by anarchy and violence, and the United Nations says that Israeli sanctions, laws and system have had to struggle to bring food due to the breakdown of law and order and widespread looting.
