EGALITARIAN VOICE MEDIA gathered that at least 2, 215 people, including 724 children have been killed since Hamas’s attack on southern Israel one week ago.
The Palestinian territory’s Hamas-controlled health ministry disclosed this on Saturday, adding that 458 women were among those killed.
It added that 8,714 people have also been wounded, after an earlier statement said at least 324 people were killed in the past 24 hours alone.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said the bombardment is “just the beginning” as Israel seeks to retaliate against Hamas after their fighters killed more than 1,300 people a week ago.
More than 1,300 buildings in the Gaza Strip have been destroyed so far, the United Nations said Saturday.
