Occupied Jerusalem, Sept. 8 (SANA) The death toll from the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, has risen to 73,662, with 174,627 others injured, the Palestinian Health Ministry said Tuesday.

The ministry said in a statement on Telegram that hospitals across the Gaza Strip had received four bodies and five injured people over the past 24 hours.

It added that 1,355 Palestinians had been killed and 4,516 injured since the ceasefire took effect on October 10, 2025.

A number of victims remain trapped under rubble and on roads, with ambulance and civil defense crews still unable to reach them, the ministry said.

The war has caused a severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza, including widespread destruction of homes and infrastructure, the collapse of essential services and restrictions on the entry of humanitarian aid and reconstruction materials.
