The death toll in Israel's genocidal war on Gaza crossed 73,000 on Tuesday after it killed another eight Palestinians over the past 24 hours in the besieged territory, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.
In its daily statistical report, the ministry said Gaza hospitals received eight bodies and 26 injured in the past 24 hours as the Israeli military continued to violate the October 2025 cease-fire through shelling and gunfire across different parts of the territory.
Several victims remain trapped under the rubble and on the roads, with ambulance and civil defense crews still unable to reach them, the ministry added.
According to the ministry, the death toll from Israeli violations of the truce has risen to 1,053, while 3,406 others have been injured. It added that the overall toll from Israel's genocide has reached 73,066 killed and 173,514 wounded.
Besides the casualties, the campaign caused widespread destruction, damaging about 90% of Gaza's civilian infrastructure, with the U.N. estimating reconstruction costs at around $70 billion.
