Israel's offensive has also wounded 92,401 people and displaced more than 85% of the population from their homes, the ministry in Hamas-run Gaza said.

It does not distinguish between civilians and militants in its toll.

The announcement came during another push from international mediators to broker a ceasefire in the war, now in its 11th month.
