"Israel" has left extensive casualties—ranging from at least 40,900 to 186,000 Palestinians, mainly children and women. Thousands more are believed to be buried beneath the rubble, with at least 94,000 wounded and the overwhelming majority of Gaza’s 2.3 million population forcibly displaced. Despite it all, the Israeli genocide against Palestinians in Gaza continues live and unabated for 388 days.
