Nearly all of Gaza's 2.4 million inhabitants have been displaced by the war that has ravaged the Palestinian territory for over 14 months.

The UN's Satellite Centre (UNOSAT) determined in September 2024 that 66 percent of Gaza's buildings had been damaged or completely destroyed by the war, in which Israel has made extensive use of air strikes as it fights the militant group Hamas.

At least 46,537 Palestinians have been killed in Israel's military campaign in Gaza since the war began, according to data provided by the health ministry. In addition, the October 7 attack that triggered the war resulted in the deaths of 1,208 people on the Israeli side, which includes hostages killed in captivity.
