According to a new study published in The Lancet Global Health, more than 75,000 Palestinians were killed in the first 15 months of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, a figure significantly higher than the 49,000 deaths announced at the time by local health officials. The peer-reviewed research has found that women, children and the elderly accounted for 56.2 percent of violent deaths during that period, a proportion it said broadly aligns with reporting by Gaza’s health ministry.
