A ministry statement said some 62,681 people were also wounded in the fighting between Israeli forces and Palestinian militants.
Over the past 24 hours, the ministry said 178 people had been killed across the Gaza Strip.
“Dozens are still under the rubble,” the Hamas government media office said in a separate statement.
