Over 24 months, Israeli military operations and a tightened blockade have caused massive civilian casualties and infrastructure destruction across Gaza. The assault began on October 7, 2023, following attacks on southern Israel by fighters from the Qassam Brigades and other Palestinian groups. At least 67,000 Palestinians have been killed and more than 169,000 injured. At least 20,000 children are among the dead and UNICEF estimates 3,000–4,000 children have lost limbs. Thousands remain under rubble and the true death toll is likely higher. At least 125 health facilities, including 34 hospitals, have been damaged and at least 1,722 health and aid workers killed. Remaining health services operate with dwindling supplies and little to no anaesthesia.
