The Gaza Health Ministry also said at least 101,110 people have been wounded since the war started on Oct. 7, 2023.
The number of Palestinians killed in the yearlong war in Gaza has passed 43,000, more than half of them women and children, the Palestinian Health Ministry said Monday.
The tally includes 96 dead who arrived at hospitals in Gaza over the past two days, the ministry said. Israeli troops have launched an ongoing operation in northern Gaza that included a raid on a hospital over the weekend. The military said it detained 100 suspected Hamas militants in a raid on Kamal Adwan Hospital in Beit Lahiya on Friday.

This is a very conservative estimate. Other studies estimate that the total dead is more than 200,000 by now, or 10% of Gaza's population. And we should not forget the many, many people who are living with serious injuries from Israel's attacks, or all the people slowly starving.
