Palestinian statistics bureau projects Gaza population down by 6% since start of war
The Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics says Gaza's population has declined by around 160,000, including over 55,000 presumed dead and 100,000 people that have left Gaza since 7 October, 2023.
Hamas has announced the release of three more Israeli hostages as part of the ongoing ceasefire deal, while Israel is set to free 183 Palestinian prisoners in return. This marks the fifth high-stakes exchange under the fragile truce, raising critical questions—Is this a step toward peace, or a dangerous deal with lasting consequences? As tensions remain high, U.S. and Israeli officials continue pushing for the relocation of Gaza’s population after the war. With uncertainty surrounding the next phase of negotiations, will the ceasefire hold, or is another escalation inevitable?

U.S. President Donald Trump has proposed the forced evacuation of Gaza's 2 million residents, with plans for the U.S. to take over control of the war-torn region. This unprecedented move has been met with fierce opposition from Hamas, which vows to resist these "unacceptable" plans. The proposal, made in a White House press conference with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, has sparked widespread outrage across the Arab world, including Egypt and Jordan, who have rejected the idea of resettling Gazans.
