Gaza death toll from Israeli war nears 48,600 as more bodies found under rubble
Palestinian medics and rescue teams recovered three more bodies from the rubble in the Gaza Strip, bringing the overall death toll from Israel’s destructive war since October 2023 to 48,577, the Health Ministry said on Monday.

A ministry statement said the toll included one Palestinian killed by Israeli army fire and another who died of his injuries in the last 24 hours.
Nine more injured Palestinians were transferred to hospitals, taking the number of injuries to 112,041 in the Israeli onslaught, it added.
“Many victims are still trapped under the rubble and on the roads as rescuers are unable to reach them,” the ministry said.
A ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement has been in place in Gaza since Jan. 19, halting the Israeli war that has caused widespread destruction and left the Palestinian enclave in ruins.
Despite the ceasefire, the Gaza local authorities reported almost daily ceasefire violations by the Israeli army.
The International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants in November last year for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.
