Revision as of 18:23, 2 November 2024

As of 29 October 2024, over 44,000 people (43,061 Palestinian[1] and 1,706 Israeli)[19] have been reported as killed in the Israel–Hamas war, including 134-146 journalists and media workers,[22] 120 academics,[23] and over 224 humanitarian aid workers, including 179 employees of UNRWA.[24]

The vast majority of casualties have been in the Gaza Strip. The Gaza Health Ministry (GHM) total casualty count is the number of deaths directly caused by the war, while the demographic breakdown is a subset of those individually identified.[25][26] On 17 September 2024, the GHM published the names, gender and birth date of 34,344 individual Palestinians whose identities were confirmed. This reflects more than 80% of the casualties reported so far; of these, 60% were not men of fighting age.[25] 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] According to a PCPSR report, over 60% of Gazans have lost family members since 7 October 2023.[29][30]

According to a letter sent to President Joseph R. Biden, Vice President Kamala D. Harris, and others on October 2, 2024 by 99 American healthcare workers who have served in the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, and cited in a study from the Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs at Brown University, based on starvation standards by the United States-funded Integrated Food Security Phase Classification, according to the most conservative estimate that they could calculate based on the available data, at least 62,413 people in Gaza have thus far died from starvation, most of them young children, as well as at least 5,000 estimated deaths from lack of access to care for chronic diseases.[31][32][33]

The 7 October attacks on Israel killed 1,195 people, including 815 civilians.[2] A further 251 persons were taken hostage during the initial attack on Israel to the Gaza Strip.[34][35][36] 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,[37] Syria,[38] Yemen,[39] and Iran.[40]
