Gaza:The death toll from the Israeli occupation's military offensive in the Gaza Strip has escalated to 74,645, with 175,978 people wounded since October 7, 2023, as reported by the territory's health authorities.

According to Qatar News Agency, the health authorities issued a statement on Tuesday indicating that hospitals in Gaza received two bodies and 16 injured individuals over the previous 24 hours. The statement also revealed that 1,614 Palestinians have been killed and 5,849 wounded since a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas took effect in October 2025.

The statement further noted that an additional 850 bodies have been recovered since the truce commenced, yet health officials caution that numerous victims remain trapped beneath rubble or lying in the streets, with ambulance and rescue teams unable to reach them.

The ceasefire agreement, which began in October last year, was aimed at halting hostilities between the Israeli occupation and Hamas. However, observers have noted that Israeli forces have continued to violate the agreement through air strikes, artillery shelling, and sustained gunfire in various parts of the territory. These ongoing attacks have resulted in further casualties, exacerbating the severe humanitarian crisis already facing Gaza's population.
