Gaza (QNN)- The Government Media Office in Gaza has released a harrowing two-year report detailing the scale of Israel’s ongoing genocide in the Strip. The document marks 730 consecutive days of mass killing, starvation, and forced displacement that have left almost all of Gaza in ruins.

According to the report, more than 76,600 Palestinians are dead or missing since the start of Israel’s genocide on October 7, 2023. Over 20,000 of them are children. At least 12,500 women have been killed, alongside 1,670 medical workers and 254 journalists. The report says 2,700 families were completely annihilated, while another 6,000 lost nearly every member.

Israeli forces have dropped more than 200,000 tons of explosives on Gaza, flattening homes, hospitals, and schools. About 90% of the Strip lies in ruins, and two million people are now displaced.

Hospitals have been bombed repeatedly. Thirty-eight hospitals and 96 clinics no longer function. 197 ambulances and 61 rescue vehicles were directly targeted. The health system, once strained, has completely collapsed. Thousands of patients with cancer, kidney failure, and chronic diseases have died after Israel blocked medical evacuations and destroyed infrastructure.

Hunger has become a weapon as Israel has closed all Gaza crossings for 220 days, blocking over 120,000 aid trucks. At least 460 people have died of starvation, including 154 children. The report warns that 650,000 children face death from hunger and malnutrition and more than 22,000 patients need treatment abroad but are denied travel.

The education sector is in ruins with ninety-five percent of schools damaged, and 165 universities and schools completely destroyed. More than 13,500 students and 830 teachers have been killed, according to the report.

Religious sites have also been wiped out. Israel has destroyed 835 mosques, three churches, and 40 cemeteries. The report says Israeli forces desecrated graves, stealing 2,450 bodies and digging seven mass graves inside hospitals.

Infrastructure across Gaza has collapsed. 725 water wells and over 5,000 kilometers of power lines were destroyed. Israel’s bombing of freshwater projects caused 9,400 deaths, mostly children. The Strip has been left without safe water, electricity, or sewage systems.

The report lists total direct losses of $70 billion across 15 key sectors, with $28 billion in housing destruction alone. Nearly 268,000 housing units were completely leveled, leaving over 288,000 families homeless.

Gaza’s agriculture and fishing sectors no longer exist as over 94% of farmland and all fishing facilities have been destroyed, plunging the population into deeper starvation. 6 October 2025
