Fresh Gaza Strikes Kill Dozens as New Analysis Finds Vast Majority of Deaths Are Civilians

Independent ACLED data challenge Israeli claims on combatant tolls.

Overview

  • Hospital sources quoted by Al Jazeera report at least 36 people killed since dawn in the Gaza Strip, including 31 in Gaza City.
  • A strike hit the home of the brother of al‑Shifa hospital director Mohammed Abu Salmiya, killing him and several of his children, according to local reports.
  • An ACLED analysis reported by The Guardian indicates roughly 15 of every 16 people killed by Israeli forces since March were civilians.
  • ACLED places the number of operatives killed near 1,100 versus Israel’s stated figure of more than 2,100 and documents a marked increase in building demolitions after March.
  • United Nations statistics count more than 16,000 Palestinian deaths since large-scale attacks resumed in March, as President Donald Trump said remaining Israeli hostages in Gaza City could be at greater risk.
