Of the approximately 18,800 Palestinians killed by Israeli strikes, 70 percent of them are women and children, the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Ramallah said in a statement on Sunday.
More than 300 health workers, 86 journalists, 135 staff of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East and about 35 civil defense crews are included in the death toll.
The ministry added that more than 51,100 people were reported injured, with dozens more still missing.
The ministry went on to say in its report that only eight of 36 hospitals are partially functional in the enclave and that occupancy rates have risen to 206 percent in hospital departments and 250 percent in intensive care units.
CNN cannot independently verify these numbers. The ministry bases its figures on data obtained from hospitals in Hamas-controlled Gaza.
As of last week (December 10), the Israel Defense Forces said they had struck over 22,000 targets in Gaza since Hamas' the attack on Israel on October 7. CNN has reached out to the IDF for an updated figure.
