German Researchers Determine Over 100,000 Palestinians Killed By Israel In Gaza
Gaza’s Health Ministry has faced extreme limitations in counting deaths due to Israel’s destruction of the strip’s medical sector
The death toll of Palestinians who were killed by Israel during the two-year genocide could be more than 100,000, according to a new study carried out by researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research (MPIDR) in the German city of Rostock.
“We will never know the exact number of dead. We are only trying to estimate as accurately as possible what a realistic order of magnitude might be,” said the co-leader of the project, Irena Chen.
The team of researchers gathered data from various sources – including Gaza’s Health Ministry, independent household surveys, and death reports found on social media – and conducted statistical projections.
“We used non-conflict mortality data to forecast the baseline mortality for 2023 and 2024, representing a counterfactual scenario in the absence of conflict. The forecast was generated using the Poisson version of the Lee-Carter method,” the study said.
Gaza’s Health Ministry is the only official source for the number of Palestinians killed by Israel since the genocide started on 7 October 2023.
