Palestinian death toll in Gaza war passes 74,000, and other Mideast news
Gaza’s Health Ministry says more than 174,000 people have been wounded, as Israeli strikes continue despite a fragile ceasefire.
- On Saturday, September 26, 2026, Gaza's Health Ministry reported that the Palestinian death toll in the Israel-Hamas war reached 74,016, with 175,068 people wounded.
- Although a U.S.-brokered ceasefire took effect on October 10, the agreement remains largely stalled, with ongoing Israeli strikes continuing in response to perceived threats.
- Since the ceasefire, 1,145 Palestinians and seven Israeli soldiers have been killed, according to official reports. Israeli forces currently control more than half of the Palestinian territory.
- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu insists that forces will not withdraw until Hamas disarms, effectively preventing a new Palestinian government and stalling reconstruction efforts.
- Women and children account for approximately half the total death toll, according to the Health Ministry. U.N. agencies view these records as generally reliable despite the lack of civilian-militant distinction.
