Earlier, the Gaza Strip Health Ministry had stopped releasing death toll updates after communication networks were cut off in the northern part of the region on the 11th. The ministry compiled the casualty figures by adding the number of deaths reported in northern Gaza hospitals up to the 11th to the recent deaths reported in southern hospitals.


Foreign media reported that the actual number of Gaza residents who have lost their lives is expected to be much higher.



The Gaza Strip Health Ministry stated, "Currently, 6,000 people are missing," and added, "There are concerns that many of them are buried under building debris."
