The number of Palestinian children injured by live ammunition fired by Israeli forces has more than doubled since October 7 compared with the preceding 10 months (1,411 compared to 615), the report pointed out.

“Between 7 October 2023 and 12 August 2024, 594 Palestinians were killed in the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, in addition to two who died of wounds sustained prior to 7 October.”

“These include 577 killed by Israeli forces, ten by Israeli settlers, and seven where it remains unknown whether the perpetrators were Israeli forces or settlers.”

The Palestinian death toll from the ongoing Israeli genocide war on the Gaza Strip has risen to nearly 40,000, the Palestinian Health Ministry said in a statement on Wednesday.

During the past 24 hours, the Israeli forces killed 36 people and wounded 54 others, bringing the total death toll to 39,965 and injuries to 92,294 since the Israeli war broke out in early October 2023.
