Palestine in Pictures: October 2025

The Electronic Intifada
Nov 10, 2025

At least 644 Palestinians were killed in the occupied Gaza Strip between 1 and 29 October, according to health ministry data, as Israel’s genocide stretched into its third year.

A ceasefire went into effect in Gaza at noon on 10 October, but Israeli troops continued to control around 50 percent of Gaza’s territory and use lethal force against its surviving population.

As of 30 October, more than 68,643 people had been killed in Gaza since 7 October 2023, according to health ministry data. The ministry said that the total number includes more than 250 people who were added retroactively after their identification details were confirmed.

At least 211 people in Gaza were killed after the ceasefire went into effect, according to the health ministry, and around 600 people were injured. Nearly 500 bodies had been retrieved from under the rubble as of 30 October.

An estimated 10,000 bodies remain under the rubble of destroyed buildings, according to authorities in Gaza. The Palestinian Civil Defense says its teams lack heavy and specialized equipment and face grave risk from unexploded ordnance and decomposed bodies, all of which undermine recovery efforts.

As of 11 October, the health ministry in Gaza had recorded 463 malnutrition-related deaths, including 157 children, since October 2023.
