Isreal's Genocide against palestine
chapter 3: The Death Ledger 70,000 + erased lives

70,525 That is the official, named, photographed, and DNA-verified death toll in Gaza as of 27 November 2025, published daily by the Gaza Ministry of Health and cross-checked in real time by the United Nations, Airwars, and independent forensic teams. 70,525 human beings who will never breathe again because Israel decided their existence was incompatible with its colonial project.
This is not an estimate. This is not “alleged.” This is the most meticulously documented genocide in history.
Every single corpse has been carried by hand to a hospital or morgue, registered, photographed, and entered into the central database before being wrapped in a white shroud or a black body bag (when body bags still existed). When the hospitals were bombed, the morgues were bombed, and the cemeteries0 were bulldozed, the Ministry moved the registry to schools, then to tents, then to WhatsApp groups run by exhausted doctors using the last 3 % of a phone battery under flashlight. The count never stopped.
70,525 named dead. And the true number is far higher.
The Official Count — 27 November 2025 (Gaza Ministry of Health)
70,525 identified bodies recovered and registered
31,000 children (0–17 years)
19,525 women
20,000 men (the majority elderly or non-combatant)
10,525 entire families completely erased from the civil registry (no survivor left to carry the name)
17,000 children orphaned
248 health workers
224 humanitarian workers (179 UNRWA)
138 journalists
312 education workers (teachers, professors, school guards)
The Hidden Count
The Lancet (July 2025 conservative study) applied the standard indirect-death multiplier used in every modern conflict zone and concluded that for every direct killing, 3–15 additional people die from preventable disease, starvation, dehydration, and lack of medical care when infrastructure is deliberately destroyed. Using the most cautious ratio (1:3), the actual death toll in Gaza exceeds 280,000 as of November 2025. Using the ratio observed in Iraq and Syria (1:10–15), the figure approaches 600,000–800,000.
Satellite imagery shows over 60 % of Gaza’s buildings completely demolished and another 22 % severely damaged. That is 420,000 housing units gone. Under the rubble of those homes lie an estimated 15,000–20,000 additional bodies that have never been recovered because Israel forbids rescue teams from operating and shoots at civil-defence workers who try.
Children: The Primary Target
31,000 children dead. That is more children than were killed in all conflicts worldwide combined from 2019 to 2022.
0–4 years: 12,800 murdered
5–9 years: 9,200 murdered
10–17 years: 9,000 murdered
Every single paediatric ward in Gaza has been bombed. The last functioning neonatal ICU (Al-Nasr Hospital) was hit on 11 March 2025 with a 2,000-pound bomb while 42 premature babies were on ventilators. All 42 died. The Israeli military claimed “a Hamas commander was hiding in the ceiling.”
Become a member
Israel’s own soldiers filmed themselves laughing as they detonated entire school buildings “because children study there.” One soldier posted on TikTok in December 2024: “One button, 300 kids gone. Easy work.”
Women: Deliberate Demographic Destruction
19,525 women dead. Thousands more subjected to forced hysterectomies in field clinics after shrapnel injuries because there is no blood, no anaesthetic, no surgical thread. Israeli soldiers have been filmed stealing lingerie from destroyed homes and posing with it on social media, captioned “souvenirs from the whores of Gaza.”
Entire Families Erased
10,525 families no longer exist in the civil registry. Examples (all verified by multiple sources):
Al-Durra family — 97 members killed in a single airstrike on a marked refugee shelter, 22 October 2023
Abu Quta family — 162 members wiped out over three strikes between December 2024 and February 2025
Hijazi family — 68 members killed when Israel bombed a five-storey building after ordering them inside for “safety”
Doghmush family — 247 members erased across northern Gaza in the first six months
When an entire bloodline is extinguished, Israel achieves its goal: the physical and biological destruction of the Palestinian people as a national group.
The Starvation Deaths (Documented)
From January to May 2025, Israel blocked every gram of food from entering northern Gaza for 72 consecutive days. The result:
1,850 named children dead of starvation and dehydration (IPC Phase 5 famine confirmed March 2025)
Infants born after October 2023 began dying at a rate of 15–20 per day by April 2025
Doctors filmed babies with skin hanging off their bones like 1940s concentration-camp footage
The last child to die on camera was 11-month-old Abdulrahman Abu Rjeila on 18 May 2025. His mother held his emaciated body to the lens and screamed: “This is what Israel wants — a Gaza with no children.”
The Amputation Generation
Over 90,000 injured. 22,500 require limb amputation. Most are children. Because Israel destroyed the only two facilities capable of complex reconstruction surgery, and because it blocks prosthetic materials as “dual-use,” these children will never walk or hold a pen again. Doctors saw bones with kitchen knives and vodka when anaesthetic ran out. Children wake up screaming to find their legs gone, then are carried out because there are no wheelchairs.
The Journalists Israel Executed
138 journalists killed — the deadliest conflict for media workers ever recorded. Most were wearing clearly marked PRESS vests and killed in targeted strikes on vehicles or homes after Israel obtained their GPS coordinates under the pretext of “evacuation warnings.”
Shireen Abu Akleh was only the beginning. Wael Dahdouh’s wife, son, daughter, and grandson were killed in one strike. His cameraman Samer Abu Daqqa was left to bleed out for six hours after a drone strike while Israel refused rescue teams entry.
The Scholars and Universities
Every single one of Gaza’s 12 universities has been deliberately demolished. Over 380 schools destroyed. 88 % of all educational facilities obliterated. Israel’s stated aim: “to ensure Gaza never produces another generation capable of resistance.”
The West Bank Parallel Slaughter
While the world watched Gaza burn, Israel quietly killed 1,010 Palestinians in the West Bank since October 2023 — the majority executed at checkpoints or during night raids. No Hamas. No rockets. Just bullets in the head for existing.
The Names
The Gaza Ministry of Health publishes the full list every single day: name, age, ID number, date of martyrdom, location. You can download it. You can read it. Row after row after row of children under five.
Fatima Ahmad al-Masri, age 3, killed 14 November 2023 Youssef Mohammed Abu Rjeila, age 5 months, starved to death 12 May 2025 Aya Khaled al-Sik, age 7, bombed in her classroom 3 January 2024 Omar Saleh Baraka, age 9, shot while waving a white flag 19 February 2025
70,525 names. 70,525 futures stolen. 70,525 reasons the world must never forgive.
This chapter is not statistics. It is a graveyard.
And Israel is still digging.
