A recent report by UN Women highlights the devastating impact of the ongoing conflict in Gaza, revealing that over 38,000 women and girls were killed between October 2023 and December 2025, averaging 47 deaths daily. This alarming statistic marks the highest proportion of female casualties in the history of Gaza conflicts. Despite a ceasefire established in October 2025, violence persists, with reports of more than 730 additional deaths since then. UN Women Chief of Humanitarian Action, Sofia Calltorp, emphasized the dire situation, noting that nearly 11,000 women and girls have suffered injuries resulting in lifelong disabilities. The report also highlights severe limitations on essential needs such as food, shelter, and healthcare, exacerbated by ongoing violence and infrastructure damage. UN Women is calling for the full implementation of the ceasefire, accountability for violations of international law, and unhindered access to humanitarian aid for women and girls in Gaza.
