Gaza Death Toll Surpasses 69,000 as Ceasefire Exchanges Continue
Gaza health officials report over 69,000 Palestinian deaths amid ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict and recent body exchanges under a fragile ceasefire.
- Gaza's Health Ministry reported Saturday that the death toll in the Gaza Strip has reached 69,169, with many Palestinians still missing.
- Saturday's exchanges under the ceasefire showed Israel returned the remains of 15 Palestinians, with bodies brought to Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, while 522 bodies were recovered since Oct. 10.
- The Health Ministry's review found 284 deaths were added after verification by the Government Committee for the Accreditation of Deaths between Oct. 31 and Nov. 7, 2025, raising the toll to 69,169.
- Ahmed Dheir, director of forensic medicine at Nasser Hospital, said 300 remains have been returned with 89 identified, but limited DNA matching resources mean unidentified remains will be buried in batches.
- Amid this year's olive harvest, Israeli settlers staged two attacks in Beita, West Bank, injuring 11 people as the U.N. humanitarian office reported over 260 settler attacks in October.
