Glad to see that peoples’ misconceptions about Israel are based on actual wrong numbers. That should be easy to fix, but will the underlying feeling still persist?
And in case we think it’s just the bombing and the military.
Regarding the west bank
The frequency of injuries directly caused by Israeli settlers has risen sharply, from an average of one Palestinian injured every three days in 2020, to two per day in 2025 and more than three per day so far in 2026.
The United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) has been tracking deaths in the conflict since 2008 and its data shows that 5,600 Palestinians died up to 2020 while 115,000 were injured.
I was really disappointed about the lack of easily accessible numbers for indirect deaths, so I tried my best to get some more reliable numbers: https://feddit.org/comment/16069900
When do you start counting to get to only 700k killed?
Ftfy
