GAZA, October 20, 2025 (WAFA)- Despite the ceasefire that came into effect in Gaza on October 11, the number of Palestinians killed in the Gaza Strip continues to rise, with the toll reaching 68,216, mostly women and children, since the onset of the Israeli aggression in October 2023. More than 170,361 others have also been injured.

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

Medical sources reported that 57 bodies, including 45 killed directly by Israeli forces’ fire and 12 recovered from under the rubble, along with 158 injured individuals, were brought to hospitals in Gaza over the past 48 hours.

Since the ceasefire went into effect on October 11, 80 Palestinians have been killed and 303 others have been injured. The bodies of 426 Palestinians have also been recovered.
