GAZA, August 8, 2025 (WAFA) - The death toll in the Gaza Strip has reached 61,330, the majority of whom were women and children, since the beginning of the Israeli aggression in October 2023. At least 152,359 others have also been injured.

This toll remains incomplete, as many victims remain trapped under rubble, inaccessible to ambulance and rescue crews.

Medical sources confirmed that since Israel broke its ceasefire agreement and resumed its aggression on the Gaza Strip on March 18, 2025, at least 9,824 civilians have been killed and 40,318 others have been injured.

The number of aid seekers who were killed and brought to hospitals in the past 24 hours has reached 16, with more than 250 others injured. This raises the total number of aid seekers killed while trying to secure basic necessities and brought to hospitals to 1,772, with over 12,249 injured, according to hospital records.

Sources stated that 72 bodies and 314 injured individuals were brought to hospitals in Gaza during the past 24 hours.

Hospitals in the Gaza Strip recorded four new deaths, including two children, over the past 24 hours due to starvation and malnutrition.

Medical sources confirmed that the death toll has risen to 201, including 98 children, as a result of the starvation policy imposed by Israeli occupation forces in the Gaza Strip.
