Switching to a specific analysis by the Gaza Health Impact Projections Working Group. Direct deaths since February have been somewhere between the "cease-fire" and "status quo" rates, so 3-5k disease and maternal health deaths. Traumatic death estimate fuzzy because it includes GHM reported deaths, not sure how to integrate. GHM has only reported 30 deaths from malnutrition.

Update civilian casualty numbers. Demobilized reservists, and military personnel indistinguishable from civilians, are classified as civilians under international law.

Revision as of 10:27, 28 July 2024

As of 17 July 2024, over 40,000 people (39,145 Palestinian[1] and 1,478 Israeli[13]) have been reported as killed in the Israel–Hamas war, including 108 journalists (103 Palestinian, 2 Israeli and 3 Lebanese)[14] and over 224 humanitarian aid workers, including 179 employees of UNRWA.[15]

The vast majority of casualties have been in the Gaza Strip. The death tolls reported by the UNOCHA come from Gaza Health Ministry (GHM).[16] The casualty total includes all reported deaths, while the demographic breakdown uses only casualties with associated identities.[17] The GHM announced on 30 April, 2024 that 24,686 casualties had been specifically identified through hospitals, family members, and media reports;[18] of these, 52% were women and minors, 43% were men over 18, and 5% were not identified by age or sex.[19] The GHM count does not include those who have died from "preventable disease, malnutrition and other consequences of the war".[20] An analysis by the Gaza Health Projections Working Group predicted thousands of excess deaths from disease and birth complications.[21]

The October 7 attacks on Israel killed 1,139 people, including 815 civilians.[22] A further 251 persons were taken hostage during the initial attack on Israel to the Gaza Strip.[2][23][24] A further 479 Palestinians, including 116 children, and 9 Israelis have been killed in the occupied West Bank (including East Jerusalem).[1] Casualties have also occurred in other parts of Israel, as well as in southern Lebanon, and Syria.[25]
