Israel’s retaliatory offensive has killed more than 60,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry. Its count doesn’t distinguish between fighters and civilians. The ministry operates under the Hamas government. The U.N. and other international organizations see it as the most reliable source of data on casualties.

At least 48 Palestinians have been killed while waiting for food at a crossing in the Gaza Strip. That's according to a local hospital that received the casualties on Wednesday.
