At least 20,258 people have been killed in the Gaza Strip since the start of the Israel-Palestine war on October 7, according to the latest toll from the Hamas-run Health Ministry in Gaza, which indicated most of the fatalities are women and children. The UN Security Council has voted for a boost in aid to the Gaza Strip, but according to UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, the Israeli military operation is creating "massive obstacles" to aid distribution.
