The health ministry in Gaza has said that the death toll from the Israeli military offensive has reached 47,460, AFP reports.

Despite a fragile ceasefire between Hamas and Israel, the death toll published by Gaza’s Ministry of Health continues to rise every day as bodies discovered under the rubble are identified or people succumb to earlier wounds.

In the last 24 hours, 43 additional deaths have been recorded, according to the ministry, which reported 111,580 wounded from the conflict.

AFP is unable to independently verify the conflict’s death toll.
