(Moscow = Yonhap News) Correspondent Choi In-young = Since the start of the war between Israel and the Palestinian armed faction Hamas, the number of deaths on both sides has exceeded 6,000.

According to Reuters on the 22nd (local time), the Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip, Palestine, announced that the total number of Palestinians killed in Israeli attacks since the 7th was 4,651.

Israel does not announce official death counts, but the Israeli media ‘Times of Israel’ reported that about 1,400 Israelis died in Hamas attacks during the same period.

The Gaza Strip’s Ministry of Health explained that 40% of the deaths were children. It was also revealed that 70% of the 14,245 cumulative injured were children and women.

The Gaza Strip’s Health Ministry added that 266 Palestinians had died in the past 24 hours, of whom 117 were children.

Israeli police confirmed the identities of 769 civilians killed in Hamas attacks on the 7th, and announced that the bodies of 673 of them had been delivered to their families for funerals.

Police explained that they are working in shifts 24 hours a day to try to identify the deceased, but they are having difficulty confirming the bodies because they are often burned, damaged, or destroyed.

An Israeli military spokesman said there were 212 people being held hostage by Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

The Israeli Ministry of Health announced that a total of 5,132 people have been injured in the war and treated in hospitals since the 7th.

As of 8:30 a.m. on this day, 299 people were hospitalized. Of these, 47 were in serious condition, 178 had moderate injuries, and 78 were in minor condition.
