100,000 Palestinians killed in their own genocide: Israeli daily Haaretz

Nearly 100,000 Palestinians have been killed so far in Israel's aggression in Gaza, which is about 4 percent of Gaza's total population, reported Israeli daily Haaretz. This figure is much higher than the death toll of 56,300 provided by the Gaza Health Ministry. Haaretz stated that besides direct attacks in the war, many more people have lost their lives due to hunger, disease, and cold. Due to the war, Gaza's healthcare system has collapsed, leading to an increase in indirect deaths.

A study conducted by Michael Spagat, a professor at Royal Holloway, University of London, showed that by January 2025, 75,200 people were violently killed in Gaza, 56 percent of whom were women and children. This ratio has not been seen in any conflict since World War II. Spagat said, “This war is one of the bloodiest conflicts of the 21st century, and probably the highest in terms of civilian death rate.”

Earlier, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza. Besides, a case is ongoing at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) accusing Israel of genocide.
