Hamas Data Demonstrates There Is No Genocide in Gaza
(Israel Hayom) Ariel Kahana - Data from the "Palestinian Health Ministry" demonstrates there is no genocide occurring in Gaza, according to research by the Tamaror research group for Israeli-Palestinian conflict studies, led by Professor Gilad Hirschberger from Reichman University. The research analyzed casualty data from Gaza from Nov. 2023 to the present, focusing on the proportion of men aged 17-55 among the deceased, representing the demographic most likely to include active combatants. Findings revealed a "consistent and gradual reduction in total Palestinian casualties (in Gaza) throughout the conflict period." As the conflict progressed, men aged 17-55 represented an ever-growing percentage of total fatalities. "Recent months show fighting-age casualties approaching 50% of the total...indicating military efforts focus on eliminating terrorists." "This indicates successful efforts to target terrorists while protecting civilians. If Israel intended population destruction, military operations would target all demographic segments equally, and Hamas's own data would reflect this pattern. Current evidence shows no such pattern."
