List of Palestinian athletes killed in the Israel–Hamas war

Palestinian sports has deteriorated due to the ongoing Israeli invasion of Gaza. By May 2024, at least 265 Palestinian sportsmen,  55 of them footballers, were killed in Israeli attacks, of whom 18 were children and 37 teenagers. The Israeli invasions have also led to destruction stadiums and closure of clubs. The PFA announced "at least 182 athletes and sports officials had been killed" during the war.

Palestinian football, by passing through the developments of the second intifada and successive Israeli wars in Gaza, was able to enter the Asian Nations Cup in three consecutive periods. But Israel's recent war in Gaza has made it difficult for the Palestinian football team to participate in the preliminary stage of the 2026 World Cup and the 2024 Asian Nations Cup.
