Lancet Reveals Gaza War Death Toll Skyrockets to 64K

A recent Lancet study shocks the world by estimating Gaza's death toll from the Israel-Hamas war at 64,260, a staggering 41% above the official 46,000. Between October 2023 and June 2024, vulnerable groups—women, children, and the elderly—bore the brunt. Healthcare infrastructure is in ruins with only 17 of 36 hospitals operational and medical evacuations languish at 229 since May. While Israel disputes targeting non-combatants, the humanitarian crisis deepens amid restricted media access.
