JAKARTA - The Palestinian Ministry of Health (MoH) said the number of Palestinians killed since the Israeli invasion of Gaza reached 73,001 people on Sunday, June 14 local time.

Citing AP, the continued increase in the number of civilian casualties in Palestine is due to Israel's continued attacks despite agreeing to a ceasefire with Hamas in October.

The number of deaths was confirmed by the head of the Gaza health ministry's records department, Zaher Al-Waheidi, and the ministry's public relations department, Hamza Salem.

Meanwhile, an Israeli attack on Saturday night, June 13, killed two Palestinians in Khan Younis. According to the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, the bodies of the victims have been taken to Nasser Hospital.

Over the loss of civilian life from the ranks of Palestinian civilians, the Israeli military did not immediately respond to media requests for comment.

On the one hand, Israel's genocide efforts in Gaza since October 2023 have also caused more than 173,200 Palestinians to be injured.
