GMO: Gaza’s real death toll likely to top 50,000

GAZA(Palestine Foundation Information Center) The official death toll in Gaza has surpassed 40,000, but another 10,000 people remain missing under the rubble of collapsed buildings, Gaza’s Government Media Office (GMO) said on Thursday.

It said the official death toll only included casualties that had been brought to hospitals but that more bodies were yet to be retrieved, meaning the real number of deaths may surpass 50,000.

It added that 92,401 people had been injured, many of whom could not receive medical treatment due to the collapse of the health system.

The Israeli army killed more than 16,000 children and more than 11,000 women during the genocidal war, and committed more than 3,400 massacres against civilians in the Gaza Strip, with the full support of the US administration, the GMO further said.
