The ministry warned that many victims remain trapped beneath rubble and in areas unreachable by ambulance and civil defense teams due to ongoing bombardment, destroyed roads, and severe winter conditions.
According to the ministry, 395 people have been killed and 1,088 injured since the declared ceasefire on 11 October 2025, with 634 bodies recovered during that period. Despite the temporary halt in wide-scale airstrikes, Israeli drone fire, targeted raids, and the collapse of structurally compromised buildings continue to produce casualties on an almost daily basis.
The overall death toll from the Israeli assault, which began on October 7, 2023, has now climbed to 70,669 martyrs with 171,165 people injured. Health officials stress that these figures remain incomplete, as rescue crews are unable to access dozens of destroyed neighborhoods in northern and central Gaza, where entire families are believed to still be buried under rubble.
The ministry also reported the death of one-month-old Saeed Usaid Abdeen, who succumbed to severe cold amid Gaza’s collapsing living conditions. His death raises the number of people who have died from cold and the ongoing weather depression to 13, underscoring what health authorities describe as an entirely preventable humanitarian tragedy.
