The Gaza health ministry has identified 34,344 Palestinians who lost their lives due to Israeli attacks in the territory, listing names along with details such as age, sex, and ID numbers. This data encompasses more than 80% of those killed during this period according to investigative efforts which focused on finding family members for some victims listed among them: a centenarian named Ahmed al-Tahrawi (born in Mandatory Palestine, now commemorated with his key at home) and Waad Walid Samir al-Sabah, who was tragically still unborn when her mother succumbed to rubble from an Israeli strike on 15 February.
Ahmed Al Tahrawi's life had begun in a British army camp as he served his time there before starting afresh with two young sons amidst the Nakba, expulsion of Palestinians after Israel was formed - around which many families were forced to relocate multiple times within Gaza due to various conflicts.
Ahmed Al Tahrawi's tale ended at 100 when he and his family sought refuge in a daughter-in-law’s house only for it too fell victim of an Israeli attack, leading him into the hospital with internal injuries but ultimately resulting in fatal consequences due to limited resources.
Waad Walid Samir al-Sabah's narrative is equally harrowing; born during a time when her mother was nine months pregnant and she herself unborn at an Israeli strike target, which led the already grim situation into further misery as they sought refuge. Her father Eid Sabah recalls similarities to his grandparents' experiences amidst displacement - forced evacuation due to threats of attack, enduring life in a shelter and then returning home with their damaged property only for it again become the target resulting in Waad’s mother losing her unborn child as well.
These are just two instances from among 34,344 Palestinians listed by Gaza's health ministry whose stories bear heavy testimony of Israeli attacks and their consequent sufferings during this period reporting based on the information provided about these families in need found.
