Palestinian death rose to 8,000 due to Israeli aggression

Gaza’s Health Ministry said early on Sunday that death toll linked to the Israeli aggression is past 8,000, half of whom are children, while the last toll issued early Saturday, was 7,703 dead Palestinian citizens.

This considers a toll without precedent in decades of Israeli-Palestinian violence, and one that is expected to climb even more rapidly as Israel presses its ground offensive.

The ministry has released detailed records last week showing the names, ages and ID numbers of most of the deaths it has recorded, saying some bodies have not yet been identified.
