After 2 years of genocide, a sample of what Palestinians have lost
To mark two years of attacks by Israel, the Government Media Office in Gaza has released a series of figures detailing the devastating toll the war has taken on Palestinians:
- About 90 percent of the Gaza Strip has been totally destroyed by the Israeli military, which controls more than 80 percent of the territory through ground invasion, armed attacks and forced displacement orders.
- Israel has dropped more than 200,000 tonnes of explosives on the besieged enclave – and has bombed the so-called “safe zone” of al-Mawasi at least 136 times.
- At least 1,015 children under one year old have been killed by Israel, along with 1,670 medical staff, 254 journalists, and 140 civil defense rescue workers among over 77,000 Palestinians.
- More than 2,700 families, comprising more than 8,500 people, have been wiped off the civil registry. At least 56,348 children are orphaned.
- Israel has bombed 38 hospitals out of commission, with another 96 healthcare centers destroyed, and 197 ambulances and 61 civil defense vehicles also targeted.
- More than 835 mosques have been destroyed and another 180 are damaged, while three churches have been targeted multiple times. Forty cemeteries also were destroyed and bodies taken.
- The total value of initial direct damages as a result of the genocide is estimated at $70bn, including $28bn worth of damage to housing, $5bn to healthcare, and $4bn to the education sector.
