Gaza’s Health Ministry releases full list of Palestinians killed as Biden doubts accuracy of toll

GAZA CITY, Palestine 

Gaza’s Health Ministry on Thursday released a full list of Palestinians killed in the ongoing Israeli attacks on the blockaded territory. 

The move came a day after US President Joe Biden doubted the accuracy of the death toll announced by the ministry in Gaza.

The ministry’s list included 6,747 people killed in the Israeli attacks, including 2,665 children.

Another 529 bodies remain to be identified, the ministry added.

Israel has launched relentless airstrikes on the Gaza Strip following a cross-border attack by Hamas into Israeli territory on Oct. 7.

Over 8,400 people have been killed in the conflict, including at least 7,028 Palestinians and 1,400 Israelis.

Gaza's 2.3 million residents have been running out of food, water, medicine, and fuel, and aid convoys allowed into Gaza have carried only a fraction of what is needed.
