The latest death toll stands at 18,894 Palestinians in Gaza and the occupied West Bank with around 1,200 people killed in Israel since October 7.
Devastation across Gaza
According to the latest data from the UN’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Palestinian government, and as of December 13, Israeli attacks have damaged at least:
- Over half of Gaza’s homes - 305,000 residential units have been destroyed or damaged
- 339 educational facilities damaged
- 26 out of 35 hospitals not functioning
- 102 ambulances damaged
- 197 places of worship damaged
Nowhere safe to go
- The Israeli army published an online map of the Gaza Strip on Friday, dividing the enclave into more than 600 numbered blocks. It asked Gaza’s civilians to identify the block corresponding with their area of residence and evacuate when ordered.
- Furthermore, several Gaza residents have no reliable way to access the map, with little access to electricity or the internet since the blockade of the 365sq km (141sq miles) strip has resulted in a collapse of telecommunications infrastructure.
