Source-derived summary

The Gaza war began on 7 October 2023 when Hamas launched coordinated armed incursions on Israel from the Gaza Strip. However, the Gaza–Israel conflict precedes the 2023 attacks. As of September 25, 2026 over 75,000 people – 73,919 Palestinians and 2,043 Israeli – have been reported killed in the Gaza war according to the official figures of the Gaza Health Ministry and Israeli authorities, but this is not a conclusive list.

Some developments may become known or understood only in retrospect, so this is not an exhaustive list. Events on the ground for which the precise time is known are in Israel Summer Time (UTC+3) until 29 October when Israel Standard Time (UTC+2) resumed.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Timeline of the Gaza war” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Timeline, Gaza and daily provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 25, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q122979998. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2023 and 2026.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
