An Israeli official said that the government was assessing the data, which was released before Friday’s bombardment.
The high number of children reported killed — about 40 percent of the total — is broadly in line with the high share of children in the Gazan population.
In total, the list named 2,665 children who have been killed and 2,902 women and girls.
The date of death is not listed for each individual, but a separate summary of the deaths from the health ministry indicates that the toll has been increasing in recent days.
The ministry said the list did not include an additional 281 people who had been killed but could not be identified, bringing the total number to 7,028.
