The health ministry in Gaza has reported that the death toll from the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas has surpassed 70,000. Despite a fragile ceasefire brokered by the United States, violence continues, with both sides accusing each other of violations. Recent updates from the ministry include the processing of data for hundreds of bodies, contributing to the latest spike in reported deaths. The humanitarian situation in Gaza remains dire, even as exchanges of hostages and prisoners have taken place between the two sides.
