Research published in the Lancet indicates that the death toll due to the ongoing Gaza conflict is significantly higher than reported by local health authorities, citing around 64,260 deaths, 40% more than official figures.
The analysis estimated that 59.1% of the casualties were women, children, and elderly individuals, underscoring the human cost of the conflict and raising concerns about civilian safety amid military operations.
Despite the significant death toll, a senior Israeli official defended the military's operations, emphasizing that the armed forces undertaken unprecedented measures aimed at minimizing civilian casualties during their campaigns.
