Revision as of 09:02, 1 October 2024

As of 23 September 2024, over 43,000 people (41,431 Palestinian[1] and 1,706 Israeli)[19] have been reported as killed in the Israel–Hamas war, including 116-134 journalists and media workers according to various sources (111-127 Palestinian, 2-4 Israeli and 3 Lebanese)[20][21] and over 224 humanitarian aid workers, including 179 employees of UNRWA.[22]

The vast majority of casualties have been in the Gaza Strip where, according to a PCPSR report, over 60% of Gazans have lost family members since 7 October 2023.[23] The death tolls reported by the UN OCHA come from Gaza Health Ministry (GHM).[24] The casualty total includes all reported deaths, while the demographic breakdown uses only casualties with associated identities.[25] The GHM published on 17 September 2024 the names, gender and birth date of of 34,344 individual Palestinians whose identities were confirmed. This reflects more than 80% of the reported casualties reported so far; of these, 60% were not men of fighting age.[26] The GHM count does not include those who have died from "preventable disease, malnutrition and other consequences of the war".[27] An analysis by the Gaza Health Projections Working Group predicted thousands of excess deaths from disease and birth complications.[28]

The 7 October attacks on Israel killed 1,195 people, including 815 civilians.[29] A further 251 persons were taken hostage during the initial attack on Israel to the Gaza Strip.[30][31][32] A further 479 Palestinians, including 116 children, and 9 Israelis have been killed in the occupied West Bank (including East Jerusalem).[1] Casualties have also occurred in other parts of Israel, as well as in southern Lebanon,[33] Syria,[34] Yemen,[35] and Iran.[36]
