updated as of yesterday (July 21): based on a statistical model developed by a prestigious medical journal called The Lancet, Israel has killed roughly 434,800 people in Gaza since the country’s military started to attack the territory on 8 October 2023. That’s 20.7% of Gaza’s entire pre-conflict population dead. Over half are women and children.

No matter how often you call it a statistical model, taking death tolls from last year and multiplying by the time since then is very crude at best. The conditions have gotten much worse, even since then. The true number of murdered people is likely to be even higher
