The identified people include 169 babies born after the Hamas attacks of 7 October that began the war, and a man born in 1922 who had survived more than a century of war and upheaval. More than 100 pages are filled with the names of victims under 10 years old, and the first adult names do not appear until page 215.

    The first 14 pages of the report are those under 1 year old.

    FOURTEEN FUCKING PAGES

      Israel has killed approximately FIVE TIMES as many kids under the age of ten alone than the entire Israeli casualty count from Oct 7.

      This is not defense, its extermination. I have no idea how anyone can look at the data and take it any other way.

      And still no sanctions, not a single country stopped completely sending them weapons. Even though there is an indictment from the ICC that Bibi and Galant are war criminals.

      The level of impunity of Israel is astonishing, and I am always surprised by the people still defending this madness. How can you justify this?

    These are confirmed victims only, who could be identified by their ID number. The Gaza Ministry of Health has taken incredibly detailed statistics for years. They hire people whose only job is to count people, their injuries, details like location of bullet wounds, percent of successful and unsuccessful treatment, etc. Mind you this is in a completely hectic scenario / triage going on with hospitals overflowing with patients. There are WHO reports using this data for some of the past notable dates and they are always horrific.

    I mean, that’s a lot. If it’s tit-for-tat, eye for an eye, whatever… that’s wildly disproportionate.

      Especially from a country where, you’d THINK they would have VERY STRONG OPINIONS AGAINST genocidal ANYTHING.
