The death toll since Hamas' surprise attack on Israel has climbed to over 1,600. Israeli media reports 900 Israelis killed while Gaza's Health Ministry says 704 Palestinians, including 143 children, have died in Israeli airstrikes. Amid the ongoing conflict, Hamas threatened to kill Israeli hostages if there are attacks on Gaza civilians without warning. This comes as Israeli forces recovered 100 bodies at the scene of a hostage standoff. Hamas' military spokesperson said they would kill a hostage anytime there are unwarned strikes on Gaza civilians. The crisis has led to over 1,600 deaths between the two sides so far, with Hamas threatening to kill more Israeli hostages.
