Health ministry in Hamas-run Gaza says war death toll at 37,084

Hamas-run Gaza’s health ministry said Sunday that at least 37,084 people have been killed in the territory during more than eight months of war between Israel and Palestinian militants.

It said the toll includes at least 274 deaths in Saturday’s Israeli raid on the Nuseirat refugee camp in which four hostages were rescued alive, a toll impossible to independently verify. The ministry said that another 84,494 people have been wounded in the war since it broke out on October 7. (BSS/AFP)
