Gaza Health Ministry: Overall death toll in Gaza Strip nears 24,000
On January 22, the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry announced that 25,295 people have died in the Gaza Strip since the start of the war on October 7. Another 63,000 sustained injuries of varying severity.
These figures cannot be independently verified, and due to the high number of casualties, burials often took place in mass graves.
According to the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry, 190 people have been killed in the Strip over the past 24 hours, and 340 people were injured.
The World Health Organization (WHO) has consistently emphasized its inability to confirm or refute the accuracy of the data on casualties provided by the Gaza Ministry of Health.
According to IDF reports, dozens of terrorists from various groups are eliminated daily in Gaza. The IDF says over 9,000 militants and their commanders have been eliminated since the beginning of the conflict in Gaza.
