A new study published in The Lancet Global Health reveals that the true human cost of Israel’s war on the Gaza Strip has surpassed previous estimates, with over 75,000 violent deaths reported by early 2025. The Gaza Health Ministry suggests that at least 71,662 people have been killed since the conflict began, with women, children, and the elderly making up over half of the casualties. Researchers also highlight the significant backlog of injuries in Gaza, estimating that it would take a decade to address the reconstructive surgery needed for survivors.
