GAZA, February 28, 2026 (WAFA) – Although a ceasefire in Gaza went into effect on October 11, the death toll in the Gaza Strip has continued to rise, reaching 72,095, mostly women and children, since the beginning of the Israeli aggression in October 2023. At least 171,784 others have also been injured.

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

Medical sources said that during the past 24 hours, nine bodies and 19 injured individuals were brought to hospitals in Gaza.

Since the ceasefire went into effect on October 11, the number of those killed and injured has reached 628 and 1,686, respectively. At least 735 bodies have also been recovered from under the rubble.
