Four days after the Palestinian resistance accidentally hired the Zionist occupant, the deaths and injuries are already thousands. On 10 October, in the morning, the Zionists reported 3,500 casualties in official sources: 1,000 deaths and 2,500 injuries. A few days after the struggle, the State of Israel is being the highest price it has paid since the 1973 Yom Kippur War, as it is the first time that the Zionist regime emits more blood than the Palestinians in the entire history of the struggle to liberate Palestine. At the moment, however, more than 1,000 Palestinians have been killed in the bombings of recent days, in Gaza alone.

More than 900 Palestinians have been killed in the bombings of recent days

If we look at the deaths that the Zionist occupation has left in historic Palestine, we see that 87% of those killed since the first Intifada that began in December 1987 until September this year have been Palestinians. The B'Tselem are data collected by the Israeli NGO and account for a total of 11,652 Palestinian deaths. To this should be added all the bleeding from the previous and subsequent days. Occupants have lost 1,766 people in recent decades.

Since the creation of the Zionist organization Israel in 1948, tens of thousands of people have died in historic Palestine, in order to control the territory in the case of the Israelis and fight to recover it from the Palestinians. In particular, and as the data show, most civilians and fighters have fallen into the hands of Israel. Despite the fact that the occupation breaks all international standards and agreements signed over the last century, neither the United Nations nor the major capitalist powers have had the political will to stop the Zionist occupant. The Palestinians have therefore had to defend themselves and have paid for their skin, whether Muslim, Christian, lay or left-wing.

From the first Intifada in December 1987 to September of this year [...] accounts for a total of 11,652 Palestinian deaths. [...] The occupants have lost 1,766 people in the last decades

The highest levels of violence in the last 40 years occurred at the time of the Second Intifada (2000-2005) with 2,664 Palestinian deaths. Four major collisions subsequently occurred: 2008-2009, 2012, 2014 and 2021. As on this occasion, the Gaza Strip has, in most cases, been particularly hit, in addition to the demanding military blockade it is experiencing on a daily basis. So not only are there indiscriminate bombings, but also cuts in water, energy, food and medicine; half of the population in a child territory.

Since 2008

Of the 6,400 Palestinians who have died in the last fifteen years as a result of the occupation, 84% were from the Gaza Strip, according to UN data. And over half were civilians, including hundreds of children and seniors. The giant crack, correlated with forces, is even more dramatic if we look at the number of injuries since 2008: Of the 158,000 affected, over 152,000 are Palestinians. The UN says that between 2008 and 2021, 5,739 Palestinians died and 121,438 wounded. The dead Zionists were only 251.

Regarding the number of injured since 2008: Of the 158,000 affected, more than 152,000 are Palestinians

22 per cent of the Palestinians killed were children. Among the Zionist casualties, 48 per cent were soldiers of the Israeli security forces and 39 per cent were "settler civilians", i.e. persons who have decided to live in newly occupied voluntarily. These settlements are located in the territories that Israel occupied in 1967 in the Six-Day War: West Bank, East Jerusalem and the vicinity of the Gaza Strip. The State of Israel rewards, both economically and legally, the attacks on the Palestinians for committing all kinds of barbarities.

Concentration camp in Gaza

In recent days it is the fifth large-scale war between Israel and the Palestinians in just fifteen years. Since the 2005 war, the Gaza Strip has had a population of 2.2 million inhabitants (5,500 inhabitants per square kilometre) under the control of the Palestinian resistance. Consequently, millions of people suffer from the absolute blockade of the State of Israel.

Among the Zionist casualties, 48 per cent were soldiers of the Israeli security forces and 39 per cent were settler civilians.

AIDA (Association of International Development Agencies) and OCHA collect terrifying data on this territory that can help understand why Gaza is called the "world's largest open field prison": There are electricity cuts of between 12 and 16 hours, 80% of households receive humanitarian aid, 81% of the population is in poverty, 47% do not have enough food, 97% of the water is not drinkable, the unemployment rate is 47%, only 44.4% of the cement needed for reconstruction comes to them, 44% of the humanitarian aid is blocked, the airport is destroyed, Israel limits bombing fishing, etc.
