The Israel–Hamas war began on 7 October 2023 when Hamas launched an unprecedented multi-faceted and sustained assault on Israel from the Gaza Strip.[1] As of 24 April 2024, over 35,000 people (34,262 Palestinian[2] and 1,410 Israeli[10]) have been reported as killed in the Israel–Hamas war, including 97 journalists (92 Palestinian, 2 Israeli and 3 Lebanese)[11] and over 224 humanitarian aid workers, including 179 employees of UNRWA.[12]

Timeline of the Israel–Hamas war

The vast majority of casualties have been in the Gaza Strip: over 34,262 have been killed, 70% of them are women and minors.[13] In December 2023, Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor estimated 90% of the casualties were civilians,[14][15] while the IDF put the civilian ratio at 66% of those killed.[16] The death toll comes from the Gaza Health Ministry and the total death toll in Gaza is presumed to be higher than reported,[17][18] with thousands remaining unaccounted for, including those trapped under rubble.[13][19]

The October 7 attacks on Israel killed 1,139 people, including 764 civilians and 373 Israeli security personnel. A further 248 persons were taken hostage during the initial attack on Israel to the Gaza Strip.[3][20][21]

A further 469 Palestinians (including 94 children[22]) have been killed in the West Bank and East Jerusalem by the Israel military and settlers.[2] Casualties have also occurred in other parts of Israel, as well as in southern Lebanon, and Syria.[23] Some developments may become known or understood only in retrospect, so this is not an exhaustive list. Events on the ground for which the precise time is known are in Israel Summer Time (UTC+3) until October 29 when Israel Standard Time (UTC+2) resumed.
